Hello all.
Help! I am not sure what to do about my scenario, and how it may be corrected, and even if it needs to be.
I have been trying to improve my pistol accuracy by working on my dominant eye. As a right-hander, I was always "taught" that the right eye was my dominant one.
As I continued shooting, I found that my LEFT eye seemed to be the dominant one, based on the results from the paper targets.
Then I tried something different...I started trying to shoot with left-hand dominance, and achieved even better results, both with left and right eye focus.
Now I am truly concerned, in that I may be training myself in the wrong fashion. Maybe those times I did better with left hand than with right hand, I was simply having a good day.
Shooting in the left hand did not feel any more or less natural than the right hand, and eye selection did not seem to be the issue. But the initial results seemed to clearly indicate that I am a left-hand shooter. Again, I perform my main chores, including writing, with the right hand.
Is there a way I can more thoroughly test to know whether I am better with left or right-handed pistoling, without having to blow through 3-4K rounds of ammo?
I fear that if I start practicing with left-handedness without knowing the danger signs of improper handling of the firearm, I might ingrain those bad habits even further.
*sighs*
Thx all for your responses in advance.
