When you shoot target or hunt do you use one eye to shoot or both?

That's what i tried today. Bought a new bow and has a new sight on it. My old bow has the spot hogg on it. It seems that the sight is different, thought i would give it a chance, could be me. If not will take it off and put a new spot hogg on? I tried the close one eye at the long shots, got a good view. I will keep trying at it. PRACTICE PRACTICE.... No excuses this year

Both for shotgun, one for rifle, pistol and bow.

I always just close my eyes and hope for the best :chuckle:

One eye for everything with a sight. Both open for my bowfishing/trad shooting.

scoped rifle-one eye,  ar-botheyes(it has an eotech), pistol-both eyes, shotgun-both eyes.  if i have to shoot a rifle off hand ill use both because if i close just my right eye ill mostly close my left as well...

Both eyes for everything, it really helped my accuracy in archery, since I shoot my bow way more than all others combined it just feels right.
