As soon as you look at the bead and the target goes out of focus, you stop swinging the gun and your brain tells you to pull the trigger. You'll miss behind. That's why I don't believe in all these stupid high-viz sights. The shotgun should already shoot where you look; if it doesn't, the gun doesn't fit properly or it's being mounted improperly.
Think of it as learning to ride a bike, or pulling into a parking spot. If you look at the front tire, or the hood of the car, you're no longer focusing on where you're going.
