So I’ve always done things with my right hand, and I learned to shoot with my right hand (since it is what has come naturally to me).

However, while performing my annual qualifications with my rifle, my instructor suggested I test to see which eye was dominant for me.

Now I don’t know for certain if the method he suggested was accurate since it has never occurred to me that I may need to do such a test (shape both hands to form a triangle and center an object within it, close one eye and then the other. Whichever eye keeps the object centered is your dominant eye?)

Based upon that test, he went on suggesting that I start learning to shoot left handed if at all possible.

Does using your dominant eye make that huge of a difference when trying to take accurate shots? I qualified just fine using my right eye all these years, and I could barely hit much of anything when I shifted to my weak arm. Granted with enough practice, I’m sure I’d improve.
