[QUOTE="wiley_coyote, post: 2264489, member: 1584"] I too am right handed but left eye dominant and at times it can be a pain. Did'nt know till I started shooting on ROTC rifle team in school though. Actually shot left handed with rifles while on the team. I shoot pistols with both eyes open by cocking my head a little to the right. Right handed with a rifle I shut my left eye with iron sights even with a scope. Left eye shut when shooting a bow too but both eyes open when shotgunning right handed. I also make better ball contact when playing golf by cocking my head slightly to the right. I would have to say that I shoot rifles a little better than pistols but probably just due to the fact that I shoot rifles more than pistols. It's sometimes nice to be able to shoot with either hand, especially while in a deer stand but you always have to be aware of the fact that you're just a little bit screwed up. I'll lay that fact partially at the feet of my parents (and I love them dearly) who wanted me to be a righty and not a lefty. [/QUOTE]
