I can write with both hands. I can throw a ball with either hand too.

I write, eat, and take care of personal business :wink: with my left hand… but everything else I do right handed… throw a ball, play guitar, shooting a gun, all right dominant.

My youngest daughter got a shitty DNA deal on that one - left eye dominant and right-handed. She can still shoot well enough, but I regret not forcing her to shoot left-handed from the beginning.

Yea… Some cross shooters are better than dominant eye shooters though

Do they force themselves to shoot with their non-dominant eye, or do they twist their neck into a crazy position to get their dominant eye into position? I have heard some people actually wear an eye patch over their dominant eye to shoot.

My daughter closes her dominant eye and uses the other eye. It works well enough to put meat in the freezer, but I can tell it feels awkward to close that eye.

I have a cousin that shoots competitively, his son was a lefty but right eye dominant. The eye patch works. I remember the boy wearing that eye patch for like a week. U can retrain ur brain.

This was common during ww2 submariners who were left eye Dom. The parascopes were set up to use the right eye to look through, and the left eye would mark target bearing.

Very interesting. I wonder how much fun it will be to try to convince my 16-year-old daughter to wear an eye patch for a week this summer. I should tell her it takes a month… :smiling_imp:
