One Eye or Two?

Both eyes open?

Are we talking Shotgun here?

Target shooting through a scope is a one eye jobby as is sighting on opens normally BUT if your using RED DOT sights THATS a 2 eye open job.

Shotguns are a 2 eyes open job too but not essential. I find lining up the rib with one eye then when i have it lined up right open the other and find your target and squeeze the trigger

2 eyes open, but I had to change over to shooting left handed to achieve it.

I always focus with one eye, then open both to shoot with, as it is less stressfull. This works for most people. If, however, you suffer from Ben Turpin syndrome, using one eye is preferable, as when using both eyes, four targets appear. Failing that, take up fishing.

I usually shoot with both eyes open, helps that I'm quite left eye dominant.

Both eye's open but what your happy with I think as said you can try a eyeshield

[Terry D]

Both open. Less muscular tension and the eyeball is the finest wind-detector of them all.

For hunting especially, why on earth would you reduce your field of vision by 50%? Keep 'em open. Not like this ----->

What do you do if you're right handed but only have one eye; the left? Just curious

No, Pete. That's the 'Welsh sheep' expression and has nothing to do with correct rifle shooting technique, mate - as you, Kev and Baahbara well know.
