Cross-eye dominance

A discussion about eye dominance issues got me thinking about the years I shot registered skeet, not uncommon to see right hand shooters with a small patch on the left lens. The provided link will explain it better then I can. Some had to move the patch to different locations until they felt they had it located correctly. Used in all shooting sports, but for me most noticeable used by NSSA skeet shooters.

Also, for those who just can't shoot with both eyes open (even after a couple of years). Start with both eyes open and when you acquire the target, close one eye. Doesn't take much pratice to get it down. Don't be surprised after you close one eye you unconsciously end up with both eyes opened and a dead target.

Clay Target Shooting and Diabetes

I'm thinking Trap is the hardest of the clay target sports to shoot with falling sugar levels.  After the first shot is fired no letup for fifteen minutes. In sporting and skeet you have time to make things right.

If my sugar level is not at 100 or above when I take the field I take a sugar tablet. Two if my sensor shows a dropping level. Checking it after every 25. 

The proper edicate is to set your reader or phone on vibrate when you're using a sensor.

If your not using a sensor you need your testing equipment with your gear and ready to go, not in the vehicle.

* Sugar tablets have 3 carbs.
