I feel one handed shooting makes [m]e a better shooter.
Other posters here have echoed the idea that they feel that Bullseye helps improve certain shooting skills.
Perhaps.
Any trigger time is good trigger time. And measuring performance against any defined standard helps identify progress. And practicing Bullseye shooting makes you a better...wait for it...Bullseye shooter.
But I just don't see much in the Bullseye game that is a good vehicle for developing those skills that are most appropriate for a generally close-range, quickly-employed defensive weapon like a handgun. Except, perhaps, for practicing smooth, repeatable trigger presses.
And even this might be overstating things a bit. Bullseye-style trigger press repetitions seem to be of limited value for the majority of handgun shooters today who use guns with striker, DAO revolver, or DA/SA triggers, triggers that few Bullseye competitors would likely say are commomly used in that game.
Bullseye does develop skills with the dominant hand. But it only goes halfway down that road; it does little to develop the non-dominant hand.
I could see how Bullseye would be a benefit for those who carry 1911s with SA triggers. And how it might be a good skillbuilder for handgun hunters.
For sure, I'm not ragging on Bullseye competition. I'm sure its great fun and rewarding. But I am always looking for activities that improve my practical shooting skills and that keep my practice sessions fresh, and I don't see a lot in Bullseye that would help me here. If I'm missing the bigger picture, please help me see it.
I look at it this way: taking scarce practice time to develop the ability to take shots at distances of up to 50 yards several seconds to a minute apart with one hand to cut tiny groups just has never been a priority for me. Producing quick pairs no more than a fist's width apart at that distance with two hands while standing or from unconventional positions like prone or kneeling, yes. But practicing to methodically put shot after shot into the x-ring on a B6 while never so much as shifting the weight on your feet or bending your knees...not so much.
In the same way, taking the time to try to duplicate Jerry Muculek's feat of hitting steel from 200 yards with an upside-down revolver isn't a priority for me, either.
Although the skill of both is incredible, and in Jerry's case is fun to watch, they both seem like soccer or golf: activities dedicated to putting a ball [...bullet...] into a target using methods and tools that are poorly suited for and far too slow for the task at hand.
