Re: Keep Both Eyes Open When Shooting

"I squeeze my eyes shut tightly, point the gun, and shoot. Hopefully, when I open my eyes, the gun was pointed in the direction of the target." .....said no Annoyed Man ever.

I figure that if I have to shut both eyes tight to block out the sight picture, then I have to open both eyes to see it well. However, as my eyes have worsened over the past year and I recently learned that I have cataracts, it becomes harder and harder for me to make both eyes focus on the same focal point, like the front sight, and I find it easier to focus on the target.

Of course lately, I've done more rifle shooting than handgun shooting because I find optics to be less annoying than blindness.
