Missing the pads

So I've been playing WT drums a bit and ive had a HUGE problem with hitting under the cymbals or between the toms...

Any tips? This has ruined many FCs for me and made me fail a few.

Just play more. You'll get the coordination down eventually. There's not much more you can do.

If it's a simple pattern, you can actually look down at the pads, I guess, but I really wouldn't suggest it. Just keep practicing.

Yeah I had that problem, just keep playing and eventually you'll naturally know where the pads are and you'll stop missing them.

One thing I was taught on a real set it not to think of just hitting the drum, but make a conscious effort to aim for the center of the drum. This way, if you miss your mark by a little, you'll still hit the drum
