Eye dominance, changing my mind.

The dominant eye does not always have the best vision.


WOW, Now that adds a little kink in the subject. What if you dominant eye didn't have as good vision as the other. hmmmmm.

I would think that using the dominant eye is important enough that if this was the case you should get glasses or contact lenses.

not picking, just a fun fact here, since rifles is what i used to do..........alot of your top benchrest shooters shoot with BOTH eyes open. of course only one eye is looking in the scope.
I think, keeping one eye open is a much more natural and relaxed position. Being relaxed, is a big key in accuracy.

What if you don't have perfect vision and you were to correct your dominant eye to 20/20 and your non-dominant eye to 20/30? Then as long as the shot looks clear, you should have the proper eye over the shot. It might be useful for teaching your body a proper stance.
