[QUOTE="ez bake, post: 915648, member: 229"] So you're supposed to focus on the front sight? I have been chastised specifically for this by a couple of people that I thought knew what they were talking about - the point being that no human being can focus on more than one thing at a time (especially when dealing with distances of 20-100yds). If you focus on your front sight, doesn't the target become blurry? I've heard the same thing with handguns - focus on the target but bring the front sight into the picture and see it as you line it up with the target (but it is not the primary point of focus - the target is). I thought this specifically jived with keeping both eyes opened when shooting. I'm not arguing - just stating that I've been told this - I'd actually prefer to do things the right way, so if I'm way off here I've got no problem re-learning it the correct way. [/QUOTE]
