[QUOTE="KS Shooter2021, post: 1909390, member: 112199"] Sheepdog, I didn’t see where you mentioned wether your son was left or right handed. My son is right handed bcouldn’t hit the side of a barn when he first started shooting the pellet gun. Like others mentioned with their experiences, he was trying to look with his left eye while holding right handed. Figured out he was left eye dominate and switched to the left side where he shot well but it still didn’t “feel right “ as he put it. He used a patch over his shooting glasses and learned to shoot right handed. He is 30 now and shoots everything right handed, even does PRS. I believe shooting rifles should be based on holding the rifle in a way that feels natural to them first, (either left or right) and train that way with a patch. Eye dominance is not as important when shooting through a scope as it is with pistols or shotguns. [/QUOTE]
