A few weeks ago I took my 9 year old son to get his hunters safety certification and learned that he is left eye dominate. I had noticed over the years when I take him to shoot that he had his entire head over the rifle, but the thought never crossed my mind that he was left eye dominate.
So the question...
Which would be better to teach him?
1) Shoot left handed
2) Shoot with a patch over his eye
3) Let him continue to develop a crick in his neck by crawling over the rifle to acquire the proper sight picture
He is young enough and eager enough to learn now, so I think it is imperative for me to try to help him with what will provide him with the most amount of accuracy in the future.
He shot his first deer with my AR two years ago and the scope bit him when he pulled the trigger. I think he may be more apt to scope bites due to him leaning over the rifle to see with his left eye.
Open to suggestions...lets see where this goes.
