Anni Posted May 22, 2009 Report Share Posted May 22, 2009 Ok pigeonpals. Does anybody know if you can train an eye to become more dominant? Obviously I'm left eye dominant and right handed. I have to close my left eye when I have picked up the target, which dont bother me too much. But being able to keep both eyes open will help with gauging depth of field, Is it possibly to retrain your dominant eye ? What you rekon Tried the easy hit bead, but I just got two sight pictures cheers ANNI. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anni Posted May 22, 2009 Author Report Share Posted May 22, 2009 Yeah bit of a pain innit. Seems to be another thing to think about whilst trying to break them. It must be so much easier keeping both eyes open and just tracking and cracking them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anni Posted May 22, 2009 Author Report Share Posted May 22, 2009 (edited) Is that why you shoot like a ***? It's on page 34 of that bumper book of claypigeon poor score excuses. Just reading threw the thousands of them, trying to find some you hav'nt used. No luck yet It's frikin thread bare this book. Oh yeah and ****off ;) Edited May 22, 2009 by annihilator Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LXX73 Posted May 22, 2009 Report Share Posted May 22, 2009 Me to. I use the easyhit and also see 2 sight pictures but when focused on the clay the easyhit bead seems to help sighting in( if that makes any sense) Eye dominance certainly causes me problems.

He used to have no particular eye dominance (is it called mid eye dominance). He got it sorted but I can't remember how, but he did it himself without all these patches on his shooting glasses or standing on one leg etc He probably punched himself in the left eye for a while, until it got itself sorted. We could help you with that Edited May 22, 2009 by Chard Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I use the easyhit and also see 2 sight pictures but when focused on the clay the easyhit bead seems to help sighting in( if that makes any sense) Eye dominance certainly causes me problems. I'm shooting a mirook mk38, so the middle bead comes into play which is a pain. My right eye picks up the red dot, and my left eye is picking up a side veiw of the barrels and the middle bead. When I pick up the red dot of the easyhit with my right eye, if I close my left eye i'm actually to far over the stock with my cheek and I'm not looking straight down the barrels I must look like marty frikin feldman (google him). And all that before i even think of pulling the trigger Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LXX73 Posted May 22, 2009 Report Share Posted May 22, 2009 You could try an adjustable stock-adjusted to the left stopping you from rolling your cheek to far over. This worked for me on a previous gun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
