Both eyes open, Or 1 closed?
When shooting your bow with a peep site, do you guys shut one eye, or leave both open?

RE: Both eyes open, Or 1 closed?
I actually believe that I am more accurate with both eyes open.

I was taught one eye closed, but with the deer season being 8 months away i was thinking of trying both open.

ORIGINAL: GeneRagulsky I actually believe that I am more accurate with both eyes open. Try standing on one foot with one eye open. Now try it with both eyes open. Your balance will be better with both eyes open. When I started shooting I didn't know any better and I closed one eye.My accuracy improved overnight when I opened up both eyes. |

Both eyes open, like others said, it is more accurate for me.

How do you look through a little round hole (the peep) that is very close to one eye and see through it with both eyes? Or do you learn to fixate one eye with the peep and the other on the target? If you hav'nt guessed by now I shoot with one eye closed:D.

You don't look through the peep with both eyes, being I shoot right handed, I look through the peep with my right eye and my left eye is focused towards the target. Thisallows me a better view of my target, and it also seems to keep my sight/pins in better focus and they appear to be brighter, not to mention that it allows better balance while standing on the platform of a treestand. I use to shoot with one eye and it was tough to change but it was definetly worth it.

Hey bar, I see your poll dancing again. I shoot with 2 eyes.
