Hey Everyone,
Within the next couple years I plan on joining the Army in hopes of being in a combat role. While drill instructors will teach me how to shoot properly during Basic, I want to be better prepared. I have fired both rifles and handguns, but I have a dilemma: cross dominance (left handed and right eye dominant). This is a non issue with hand guns because I am able to shift my sights easily, but it is a problem with rifles. So, my question is this, what is the best solution to cross dominance? In all the sports that I have competed in I have been able to adopt both lefty and righty stances (I played O-Line in only a right handed stance), so I think I can make myself eventually comfortable shooting righty; however, I want to know if there is any possibility to shift my ocular dominance to my left eye and what exercises would help me. Any and all advice is appreciated.
P.S. Sorry for all the text but I just wanted to be thorough.
