Skye discovered that she is left eye dominant after shooting right handed as long  as she has been hunting......

she made the swap to shooting left handed half way through the practice season with the help of a seasoned shooter that has the same hand eye dominance ....... and did just as well.....then elevated her scores......

her best round at state was a 24/25

now she has her sights set on 1st place.....

Matt she is very fortunate that this trait was found early and she was young enough to make the change without problems. There is no doubt that her scores will improve as everything from gun mount to target acquization and leed will be one natural movement. Her timing will improve and she will become a faster shooter a good thing under windy conditions or tight quarters on the sporting clays course. That move is a major improvement to a young shooter especially one who is shooting competively. I wish her the best of luck with her shooting career and to you Matt with the loading press.
