When your shooting do you have 1 or both eyes open? I tend to have both open on closer shots and 1 on the farther ones. Just curious what works for everyone else

On my recurves I shoot both eyes open.

Compound I close one eye to look thru the peep sight


For it is not the quarry that we truly seek, but the adventure.

I shoot right handed and being left eye dominate I shut the left eye . When I shoot left handed which I used to do some it was both eyes open unless shooting a compound where I do shut the eye not aligned with the sights.

Yup


The secret to a long life is to try not to shorten it.

If possible shoot with both eyes open. I'm a right handed left eye dominate shooter and shoot left handed. I use to fight the eye by shooting right handed but made the switch many years ago and glad I did. Try squinting your eyes a little closed but still open.
