Hi again
My wife and I have been shooting a good bit lately and we're seeing major issues with her hitting the mark when shooting most autos with regular fixed, white dot sights. Her form is good, and she's comfortable with the weapons she is shooting but she is consistently high and right for the most part. The only exception is one of the 1911's which has night sights on it - she does really well with that one.
I guess I have taken some things for granted myself because I keep both eyes open when shooting, and I feel my eyes come into focus naturally. I can do this with a scope too and I shoot really well this way. After chatting with a friend though, I am wondering if she's having issues with this. I have always told her to keep both eyes open like I do, thinking that would be natural for her like it is for me, but I think this might be the issue.
We know she is right eye dominant, but that's just "barely". A buddy of mine is suggesting that she might be right eye dominant, but her left eye might be taking over when she keeps both eyes open, causing her to shoot to the right like she does.
What do you all think? Would love to heard your experience with this kind of thing.
Thanks a ton
