    Great video. I am right handed, but left eye dominant too. I just started seriously shooting pistols to EDC.

FYI, I have always shot left handed with rifles.

      What your describing is a very effective way of dealing with crossed eyed dominance, with a carbine.

    Funny thing with me is, I’m a southpaw and have shot rifles and shotguns using my left eye my whole life. I only started training and practicing pistol seriously when I decided to EDC about 3 years ago. Around my 3rd class when I started using an optic, my instructor was watching the line and he came up to me and said, “You!re cross eye dominant huh?” I had no idea what he was talking about. I was just presenting my pistol how it felt natural. Then he had me do the make a small triangle with your hands, look at a target and bring it back to my eye test. Sure enough, with pistol I use my right eye! Weird. But I had no problem adjusting. It just feels natural when I present. So I use left eye with rifle and right eye for pistol. Weird.

    I've never really understood why people ever have a problem with this with regard to pistols. I know it's different with red dots, but I've always just naturally lined the pistol up with my dominant eye without even thinking about it. This southpaw idea is pretty genius as far as preventing the head drifting or arms to one side or the other. I've only owned pistols so far, and I'm more concerned about this with rifles. I've never shot a rifle before, and I'm not sure if it's going to be a problem for me being right handed and left eye dominant.

    • @fortitudeconsulting
      @fortitudeconsulting 5 місяців тому

      @@NikoBased glad to hear it resonated with you. The biggest difference with this between irons and the dot is the fact that we have two points of reference to line up, on the gun, the front and rear sight, which makes it much easier to make the micro adjustments needed to line things up, rather than just one point of reference, being the dot. For rifle, I think the sighting system and the fact that you have a cheek weld on the stock makes a huge difference and mitigates (while not completely eliminating) cross eye dominance issues.

I don't do this with pistol, but I've tried it just to see if it works, and it seems to work. If I close my left eye while raising the pistol, it doesn't take any longer to acquire a good sight, it just makes sure I don't sight with my left eye. I don't know what the drawbacks of this would be though.

    @Donny_Karate 10 місяців тому

    Think for the majority of shooters, i can agree with this concept. Maybe there's info I'm missing from where it cuts out but depending on the shooter, this may not be so simple. For instance, cross eye dominance changes how a person draw/presents the gun. In general, these terms are accurate but as performance is being demanded, the draw AND the presentation have to make sense for the user at the time where effective use is being demanded. Folks that are right eye+hand have lil bit more they can get away with as opposed to folks like myself who are right hand/left eye. Esp as we push effecient movements, things blend together.

    • @fortitudeconsulting
      @fortitudeconsulting 10 місяців тому

      When there are cross eye dominance issues present, it’s even MORE important to isolate the presentation and get that hammered out before adding the draw to things. Have you checked out the cross eye dominance solutions video yet? If not, I’d highly recommend it. All three strategies are related to the presentation of the gun, not the draw. Typically the draw should be consistent across the board for all shooters.
