I have never been able to shoot with both open. Don't really know why but I just can't.

I believe that two eves open is best, but I can't do it. The best I can do is to draw back and start sighting with both open then close my left at the last second and finish the shot.

Ditto.

It depends which eye is dominant. If you're right eye-right hand dominate then both eyes open will work for you. If you're left eye-right hand dominant it'll be harder for you.

For hunting I think both eyes open is a must! You can see your target so much better, and often your target is in low light. One thing is if you shoot both eyes open you need to make sure you are shooting with your dominant eye....this is very important. If you shoot with the correct eye dominace you can shoot with one eye open or closed.....it really doesn't matter. If you don't shoot with your dominant eye and you shoot eyes open or closed you will and could have real problems. If you don't shoot with you dominate eye, you probably have to shoot one eye closed!

Good Luck!

When I try that I always see double. I guess I have bad eyes.

i shoot both eyes open, but i shoot a recurve andmy compound to. i think both eyes open lets you stay calmer and less likely to pull a shot,you can see everything and no little surprises.

I shoot one eye open i am right handed but left eye dominate so its hard to focus with both open. I think if you can shoot with both open its the way to go

I shoot with both eyes open, with no problems but I would do what ever works for you,,,but I think both eyes open is best.
