Bad Habit.

I shot my bow today. Bad part is, is I was shooting with my right eye closed. I'm right eye dominant. I shot with both of my eyes open after I realized what I was doing. But, even after I figured out what I was doing wrong, I realized that I closed my right eye, but it was before I shot. The first time I shot my bow in months. My grouping isn't that tight yet. After a few weeks of practice I'll be back to shooting good... Hopefully.

EDIT: The feathers kept putting small cuts on the top of my finger where the arrow lays. I can't remember for sure if it has happened before. I think this might either be the first or second time.

Do you shoot right handed. If yes, then that would be odd. If you shoot left handed and have a right dominant eye, it would be fairly normal to want to close it.

I'm right handed. I don't know why I close my right eye. It's just a strange habit. Also, I forgot to say that I shoot off my knuckle, (if it isn't obvious enough lol).
