One eye or two?
 

I just got doe shooting and after my 3rd round of shots i decided to try it with both eyes open.I think my grouping was a little better then when I was shooting with one eye closed.What does everyone else prefer.

RE: One eye or two?
 

I always shoot with both eyes open. It allows better field of view for me. Just trained myself to do it from the beginning and now wouldn't shoot any other way.

I've always closed one eye when shooting my bow just as I do when shooting a gun. I tried shooting my bow with both eyes open and completely missed the target. I feel that I can focus on my aim point better with one eye closed.

yea ive always shot with both eyes it is just habit for me i never only shot with one eye , like wideone said it gives me a better field of view

A good shooting coach will convince you to shoot with both eyes open regardless if your shooting bow, rifle, shotgun or handgun.

What I do is shoot with both eyes open however my left eye(right eye dominante shooter) floats. What I mean is, my left eye is partial open as to allow light, vision but not take over dominance.

RE: One eye or two?
 

one for me , no choice in the matter i only have one :P

RE: One eye or two?
 

I was taught to keep both open to keep a moving target in view. it also helps to judge distance with both open. try driving your car with one shut, you'll see what I mean.

i can shoot my bow both ways, i usually dont know which way i am shooting. either way im accurate. i cant do it with my gun tho except for my 410

RE: One eye or two?
 

I shoot with both open. Just seems more natural to me.

RE: One eye or two?
 

I can't seem to shoot with both eyes open. I am a lefty and lefty eye dominant. Even as a kid, I always shot an old Marlin .22 with just my left eye open. With my PSE bow and peep sight, I do the same and shoot with my left eye open. I tried {once} shooting with both eyes open and all sorts of bizarre freaky things happend! [:o][&:]
