It's a different skill than "still" precision shooting. I'm happy to have it- must be all the offhand BB and .22 shooting as a kid. At the ranges I typically hunt it's all offhand, all the time, and things happen pretty quickly, and you just have to yank that trigger when the moment arrives.
I'm consistantly amazed that I seem to hit right where I'm aiming, out to 120 yards so far. I couldn't do that at a paper target, but I do it on game.

Yeah you could on paper, amazingly, the last shot I did was about 120....by guess only.
Want to get really good at the quick trigger? Start shooting bullseye pistol, 5 rounds in 10 seconds on rapid strings... AND the 10 ring ain't that big, 3 inches IIRC at 25 yards, single handed, top shooters shoot perfect scores basically.... that one really is fast AND accurate trigger control.
For me good quick shots require a tight grip on the gun with firing hand and that the finger is totally naturally placed on the trigger, IE not on the first crease like most claim is the correct way, ya gotta make sure when you activate the trigger quickly, it comes STRAIGHT to the rear, and that varies your finger position...

I'm usually shaking a little (or a lot) when I'm playing cat and mouse with a blacktail, trying to get a clear shot, etc.
I grab the shot when the crosshairs are where I want 'em...
