Default June 6th shooting, need to practice...

So I took my 1970 model 15-3, my 2007 model 60-14, (both shooting .38 Special 148 gr. wadcutters) and my new S&W Governor (shooting .45 acp 230 gr. FMJ, and 45 Colt 250 gr. Cowboy load) to the range this afternoon, but didn't do as well as I would have expected or hoped, especially with the model 15. But checking my logbook, I see that this is the first firing of 2014, only 48 rounds in 2013, 108 rounds in 2012, and 114 rounds in 2011. As compared with 1,139 rounds in 2010. So practice really counts, especially with snubs. So here are my pics. The 25 yard results with the Governor were so disappointing, I tried the 38s at 25, and they did better, but not super.
btw, you didn't say, are we supposed to be shooting double action or single action? I shoot double action, which tends to favor my m.15.
I am having trouble re-sizing my 25 yd. .38 special photo, will try later.
