I have tried the 2 eye approach but for the time being it did not work for me.
I plan on giving it another go this spring and summer so for now it is my dominate eye only.

I've always shot with 2 eyes open!

You need one more choice in your poll, "Both ways". Lighting can definitely effect sight picture. I prefer both open so I can see more, but sometimes lighting requires you close or at least half close the non-dominant eye.
Exactly.
I agree with these gentlemen!

I shoot with my right eye open and my left eye closed, I tried shooting both open, but i think my left is slightly dominant over my right and i don't feel like changing, not now at least.

1 open. I find my target, lock on, then close one eye before I tighten up my pins. It has worked well for me and I plan to continue using only one eye.

I always shot with one eye but a couple of years my vison started geting worse. This spring I was diagnosed with an eye diease that will gradually get worse until I will need a cornea transplant so the only way I can shoot is with both eyes open.

hillarious, people closing an eye when they shoot - it really is ....... does Jordan close an eye shooting a ball? Tiger close an eye hitting a golf ball? Did Howard Hill close an eye shooting his bow?
