I shoot with one closed...Ive heard its better with 2, and Ive tried it. But it just didnt work for me.

As long as something works for you, there is no need to change it

I close one eye, but I too have heard that leving them both open is better.

I shoot with one eye open. I have tried with two open and i just shoot awful when i do this. I wear glasses so i think they throw me off somehow.
