One eye or both eyes?
I've recently just started shooting with both eyes open and it seems to be working a lot better for me. Just wondering how many use both eyes.

RE: One eye or both eyes?
training myself to shoot both. for some reason, i shoot much better with both open. the arrow seems to go exzactly where im looking. for some reason, the release feels like more of a surprise too..i know i dont use back tension...but with 1 eye id focus on the release...with 2 i seem to watch my spot and wait for my arrow to get there...i shoot much better..

I shoot with Both openall the time, but I drive with both eyes closed ;)

With bow, rifle, shotgun and pistol you are really supposed to shoot with both open and let your dominate eye look through the sights, it gives you better peripheral vision and better depth perception.

Both, it really helps when the light starts to get a bit low and you are trying to use the peep site. Remember, one thing about being up in a tree. The ground below you gets darker faster... When you are up in a tree you have to look down through the canopy with is already creating shadows. I make it a point to practice low light shooting every year.

You're dead on about making it easier to shoot in low light. I was shooting last night just before dark and it made a huge difference. The biggest benefit for me personally is that it seems to make it so much easier to settle the pin. |
