I don't know if you'll remember the posts or not, but a while back I posted regarding my eye dominance issues. (Left eye dominant, but right handed.)
Well I've gotten to the point that when shooting with both eyes open isn't so difficult, it's even becoming more natural.
So today while still putting my Sig through the paces a little more I decided to play with my .22 and started doing some shooting, I got my sights adjusted back where they need to be, something I've been meaning to do for a while now, and fired a couple of strings of week hand (Off hand for you PC folks, but it's my hand and I can call it what ever I want to.)
The results were a lot different than I thought they'd be. I'm not going to post all of my targets, just my last two, both at 10 yards.
*note, I know there's more than six holes on the .22 target, I miscounted somehow, probably too stupified at the results to think straght.
As you can see, that's pretty darn good for left handed, actually it's better than I do right handed.
The last picture was with my Colt 5" XSE, I don't even want to show the pics of my Sig targets with my left hand, it's embarrassing:embarassed:
My biggest problems right now with my left hand was my sense of trigger control was really off and my coordination is horrible. The .22's pull was so light it didn't matter, but with the Colt it just felt foreign.
I'm really torn as what to do with this development, I'm obviously going to keep carrying right handed for the time being, but should I strive to better my right handed shooting, or my left which is more accurate but less coordinated? I'm defiantly going to start beefing up my left arm and hand strength. But what do you all think I should focus on more? I am honestly perplexed. Any tips on coordination exercises? I plan on increasing my left hand dry firing exercises, but any other input would be nice.
I'm thinking of just dividing my range time in half for each style, but I'm wondering if it will be enough or if splitting evenly will be more of a hindrance.
