Did You Know?
Your dominant eye may not match your dominant hand.
The Short Answer
Most people naturally favor one eye when aiming, and that dominant eye may be opposite your dominant hand. This is called cross-eye dominance.
Eye dominance can affect how naturally you align your sights, acquire your target, and position your head when shooting.
What to Remember
- •Right-handed does not always mean right-eye dominant.
- •Left-handed does not always mean left-eye dominant.
- •Knowing your dominant eye can help you make better decisions about stance, sight alignment, and training technique.
- •There is no one-size-fits-all solution for cross-eye dominance.
G.L.O.W. Tip:
Test your eye dominance before assuming your shooting challenges are caused by your grip or sights.
Knowledge + awareness build better technique.
