Default RE: Shooting with both eyes open

I don't use a peep so keeping both my eyes open is easy for me. I don't recomend going peepless if you've been shooting that way for years. It took me at least 1000 arrows over the course of the summer to learn to shoot without one. It just takes a lot of practice and trust in your kisser button.

I have been shooting with both eyes open for some time now. After some practice it becomes second nature. I can pick up the arrow flight much faster and watch impact, like watching the flight in slow motion. I don't know how you guys do it with off eye dominance. We have one fingers shooter at our club that shoots right hand while aiming with his left. Somehow he looks over the string. Well, I guess what ever works well, stay with it. Just can't figure out how it's done.

I'm going to give the "both eyes open" technique an honest try again this summer. My eyesight has gotten much worse over the last year. I went in for my check up last week and found out I need bifocals.[>:]
