Right handed left eye Dominant

[BountyHunter]

Two choices

1. Learn to shoot with the other hand. Best long term. Not that hard either.

2. wear frosted scotch tape on safety glasses on dominant eye lense. Brain will force other eye to take over. Some have been able to train non dominant eye to be dominant doing this.

This has turned into a very informative post. I am rather sad to see so many others with the same condition.

I never had anyone teach me about shooting when i started with a daisy red rider in the 80s. My step dad got me my first shotgun, a winchester single shot 16 gauge at age 12. He never tried to teach me anything probably cause i was the only one that would bring home quail and rabbit.

Really wish all of you would have been around back then.

I am right handed and shoot the rifle left handed but a pistol right handed. I actually think shooting a right handed rifle in the left handed position is a plus in F Class. Much more comfortable bolt working. Left handed shooters, shoot in their Right mind. I don't know why I shoot a pistol right handed.

I am left handed, right eye dominant and shoot rifles and pistols right handed. I am some what ambidextrous. I would suggest you change over and shoot as a lefty. Practice bolt manipulation a hundred times a day to build muscle memory and improve the path ways the nervous system uses in accomplishing the task.

I may change to left hand rifle shooting. L eye dominant and my right eye is much weaker correction wise than my left.

I could probably not drive if I had to rely on my right eye, so when I was younger I took a 17 hmr and decided I wanted to learn to shoot with my left hand and left eye. Best move I ever made for my shooting. I just started shootings and working on fundamentals with something with no recoil. Anyone can do it just have to get it out of your head that it will be hard, like most things in life!
