Did you know you had a dominant eye? I had no idea, but it's easy to figure out which eye it is. Apparently this will help immensely with shooting a gun. I just thought it was cool.

There appears to be lots of ways to figure out what your dominant eye is..or to use the fancy term: ocular dominance.  Oooooooo. Fancy.

I learned by making a triangle with your hands. Then look at an item through that triangle, placing the item in the middle of the triangle. Close one eye, then the other. Looking through either left or right, the item will stay in the middle, but will be way off with the other eye. The eye that placed the item in the middle is your dominant eye.

To hear it explained differently and with a southern accent, check out this dude:

 

It doesn't always match up with your hand dominance. For instance, I'm right-handed, yet I'm left eye dominant. And again, I find this useless, but fun to know.
