Ok guys , I need some help in trying to settle a debate at the range. When you shoot pistol, do you close one eye or shoot with both eys open ?

both eyes open

I'm legally blind in one eye, so I'm a one eye shooter.

I shoot with both eyes, but try and practice with the dominant eye!

Bullseye with one eye, all other with two.

I know.... I know..... but its a habit.

I shoot with both eyes open. I am an NRA instructor and the NRA advises to use 2 eyes as well. At first it'l be tough to use both eyes, because you may see double vision when looking at the front site. This will go away however the longer you use this method. I shoot like this because I believe you have better vision overall.

If the time comes when I need to use the pistol for self defense, studies show the body will not allow us to close one eye in that situation. So, I practice for that.

I even shoot bullseye with 2 eyes open....

using both eyes makes my dominant (left) eye hurt, will this go away with practice? :?

Yes it will. It'll take time, but the more you practice this method the quicker it will become natural.
