[QUOTE="SDMF, post: 313278, member: 412"] Won't effect much shooting with a scope, but you're slower than someone who shoots the same "handed" as their eye dominance because their hands/eyes work together better. Shotgunning birds is where cross-dominance can be problematic. Closing your off-eye even if you're shooting with your dominant eye will slow you down, reduce your FOV (serious safety issue), and all but eliminate your depth perception making establishing a lead much more difficult. You ever hunt birds with someone who's LIGHTNING fast and yet claims to be taking his/her time? Their feet, legs, core, arms, hands, and eyes are all in tune with each other. The eyes get the feet planted proper. The legs get the core moving to the right spot, the core gets the arms, shoulders, and head aimed properly, the eyes get the hands in the right spot so that when cheek-weld is established, the shooter just needs to engage the trigger. It's fast, fluid, and yet that shooter will swear up and down that they're taking their time with the shot despite having the bird headed for the ground before others have ID'd the bird as rooster from hen, grouse from hen pheasant, etc. That person is using 100% of their vision.
