Ok, here is the scoop. I have 4 daughters, all right handed. Two of them are left eye dominant. Those two are ages 10 1/2 and 7. All of my daughters love to shoot, fish and just be in the outdoors. The 10 1/2 year old is the oldest.
When trying to shoot right handed, she is always putting her head clear over the stock and trying to use the left eye. I have had her shooting left handed and she gets frustrated because it doesn't feel natural and takes her so long that her arms get tired. (I guess now would be a good time to point out that the trhee older ones have B.B. guns and shoot often, it is when I am trying to help them shoot .22's that they get tired)
So the advice I am looking for is, do I keep trying them to shoot left handed, or get a patch (or something) and see if they can train their right eyes to take over when shooting?
Thanks in advance for any input.
