i agree with this, personally both eyes open until the last moments before the shot.Originally Posted by Darren Petts
With one eye shut unecessary tension can build up, 2 eyes helps because you have a greater FOV, field of view/vision.
Much thanks to all, great bunch of guy`s and knowledgeable too! and the smart a$$ed comments.. PriceLess
Cheers Mates, Ken
To aquire the target with heavy magnification I use one eye. Once target aquired and ranged I shoot with two eyes. In total that makes three !
Helps for several things :
Making sure line of fire is free and noone pops up from behind the bushes
Checking my spirit(s) level
Reducing muscular strain and squinting
Keeping second eye on target when it runs flies or is blown away or over
In any case find out what your dominant eye is and hope it is not the third one.
1 for scope,2 for open sights
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.Originally Posted by sparky
Both eyes open - in some FT comps you are timed and having the Butler creek as mentioned by Ken you will have to bring your head right back from the gun to see the range on the sidewheel - this will add time to the shot.Originally Posted by bowl bugle
The non scope eye can also keep an eye on the windicator for last second changes in the wind
