I know what you mean. It is only because of that dumb minigame that I stopped playing this game. I think it is really fun to play, but the fun gets taken out every time you finish a level, collected all the gold, and yet don't get a perfect score because of the minigame. It really ruined this game for me.

Get better at aiming, nuff said

well,quite hard to explain how to aim, when the cannon reach the top waiting for 0.5s(i guess)then firing.Anyway,try more and you will get suit of it

Yeah I find it easier to hit the bullseye when the cannon is moving down rather than up.

I just let it go up and down a couple of times then when it's going down again I fire and will usually get the bullseye.

I think you need to just find a rhythm that works for you, and stick with it. For me I let the cannon track up, then down, and I hit it on its second upwards swing. I have about 70% success. But the only reason that works is that I 'get' the rhythm that way... it's not really a surefire trick.

Just try to do it the same way every time and you'll eventually find a reliable trick. I used to shoot the first time the cannon moved downwards, a bit later than the moment the sound starts playing... 90% success I'd say, and I have the perfect achievement already! ^_^

When you arrive at the target, take a quick look at where exactly the bullseye is. Now, the cannon has a degrading curve, which means you'll want to aim slightly up from that.
I find that if I shoot when the cannon faces the upper rim of the bullseye, I always get it.

JUST AFTER the cannon start moving (don't wait for it to go down again) you can shoot and hit the bullseye. I can't tell you how much time you have to wait after the cannon begins to move, but i bet it's a little bit more than 1 second. Try it by yourself and see how you can shoot straight to the center like that. Actually, the up/down swinging tends to distract me.

take a pencil or something thin and aim with it

The easiest way for me was through its sound: there was a perfect "click" that I would follow on every level.

i just do it when it looks like its aiming about 2 above the bullseye. i get one most of the time with that strategy.

I'd say just keep trying till you find the perfect angle to shoot from, bro.

The timing is ALWAYS the same, if you really want to just get it over with, set up a macro that you trigger at a certain point you choose (e.g as soon as the cannon moves) and time it to shoot the bullseye perfectly from that point.
