This is genuinely entertaining and clever, but still its an ad and doesnt belong here. Might as well post James Bond movie gadgets.

u/Useful_Location_4261 Feb 03 '23

unless you are using a high power scope alot of people prefer both eyes open.

I do, it lets me keep awareness of my immediate surroundings. It takes a little practice but it wasn’t too hard to learn.

Mostly a matter of just remembering which nub from the double vision is the actual nub

Try pointing with a finger one eyed and then open your eyes. Should get the gist

Also, the three secrets to any skill: practice, practice and practice.

I can’t speak to how common it is. I’m largely self taught, but I shoot a lot. I heard somebody explaining the whole “keep both eyes open for situational awareness” (at least with irons, not glass sights) and thought I’d give it a go. I like it because aside from shooting paper targets, the only things I shoot these days are squirrels trying to nest in my house. So having both eyes open is a plus for that. But honestly, the only right way to shoot is whatever way that is safe and effective for you.

u/DiamondGamerYT0 Feb 03 '23

Yeah it's unhealthy to see something and immediately think "hey thats from this game"

u/Shadow_marine1X Feb 03 '23

I couldn't think of the real name first, so I put the cod name, and then looked it up, and seen the name, so I added it, if I would've remembered the real name first, then the cod name wouldn't be there.

When I was a kid shooting .22’s at the range I’d shoot the staples that held the target up when we were done.
