Myths & Truth About Eye Dominance in Shooting

To determine eye dominance for shooting, you can't use any of the traditional eye dominance tests. Why? Because traditional eye dominance tests tells people the wrong dominance at least 30% of the time! The reason why is because they only tell you whether you have right or left eye dominance and there are 4 that we need to test for for shooting or any sport that involves sighting/aiming/throwing/hitting. In addition, eye dominance can change depending on what's in your hands, which hand you're using, and more! What are the other two types of eye dominance? One is "cyclopean" or central dominance. That's about 11% of the population, or roughly the same percentage as left-handedness. Most people who think they don't have a dominant eye actually have cyclopean dominance. The other is "mixed" dominance where the brain tries to blend together some of the image from each eye. Both of these cause issues with presenting and aiming, but there's a quick/easy way to stabilize dominance to a single eye. Why does this matter? The image from the dominant eye is processed faster, generally perceived as larger, brighter, and it's the image that the brain is going to prefer when survival is threatened...so it's very valuable to figure out which eye that is and practice with that eye.
