that works perfectly. there are others, but they all do the same thing. The object stays in the center with one eye and not in the center with the other.

lol not really. I just appreciate you adding valuable insight to the discussion.
Wasn't sure how to take that either...compliment in general comparison or individually just for you!
I'll take it as a general comment on the forum...
The eye dominance can also make a big difference in golf, especially putting.
From an excerpt of The Golf State of Mind blog:
"Even though you think you’re looking at something with both eyes equally, what’s actually happening is your brain is taking more input from one eye than the other. That is, everyone has a “dominant eye” which is better for aiming (just ask anyone who’s done shooting or archery and they’ll know all about it). The brain favors one eye in telling it how far away something is and where you are in relation to it. So when you’re identifying your target in golf this needs to taken into account."
Of course, Andy had it down as he just about single-handedly shut down the carnival shooting gallery - Helen liked it, too.
I'm right handed and left eye dominant...go figure. I used to be pretty good shooting pool and could cut the ball with the thinnest of margins...and I can shoot a rifle just fine, but I do find more difficulty a pistol with both eyes open for a wider range of view. Basketball, baseball and shooting pool I think was just an adaption over time, but that pistol no more than I shoot is tough get my groupings as close as I want.The eye dominance can also make a big difference in golf, especially putting.

just shoot handguns at about 5 yards ... grouping is fine and that's about the distance you're going to use it if you need to.
I probably shoot about 30, but you are right...15 feet or closer is the reality...unless the SOB is still running from you...
12 guage at 15 yards gives a nice grouping, too.I probably shoot about 30, but you are right...15 feet or closer is the reality...unless the SOB is still running from you...
I've got a few of those too...even some double ought12 guage at 15 yards gives a nice grouping, too.
my holster shows with one of those. - I guess that's the idea LOL Preventive defense12 guage at 15 yards gives a nice grouping, too.
So does a Taurus Judge....5 rounds of .410 shot or five .45 of your choice. Best bet IMO is Winchester PDX1 Defender combo pack: includes ten .410 buckshot shells (each shell contains 3 buckshot discs and 10 BBs)and ten .45 Colt 225 grain bonded jacketed hollow point self defense rounds.12 guage at 15 yards gives a nice grouping, too.
Might not knock 'em down at distance, but they're going to be crying like a baby.
This is what we call "grasping at straws."
Did you watch?

-- Secretion of Doodie
Ryan Cline had two drives today. The first resulted in an offensive foul and the second was due to a defensive breakdown. Also, Ryan Cline can not stay in front of a chair.
Cline is better. But renember first three games against two bad teams and one ok team. This is first good team he has faced as starter and he could not guard or drive. Good guy, worked hard and has improved. But will struggle against quality teams.
Good point, CMP Building chemistry with these guys and you have to put your young guys in when they can have “success” and build their confidence. It’s not about winning games like that one last night that slipped away. Maybe it’s more about building a chemistry in finding the right places for the young guys to get their minutes early in the season. It’s a long season and if they lose confidence because they come in and struggle for a stretch you don’t want to carry through the season? Maybe that’s not accurate
Plenty of chances coming right up to see how this type of game could help:
@ Florida State
@ Texas
Crossroads Classic (Notre Dame)
@ Michigan
No time to get mired in the past. Despite the loss, I was generally encouraged from what I saw last night. And....Evan Boudreaux is going to continue to make an impact - you can't teach some of what he does.
They're still finding their way and specific roles - fun team to watch as well.

So where were you the game before when he had 21 points? Looked for you on the Boards then but no sign of you.... hmmmmm.
If he can't say anything bad, he just doesn't say anything.
The only player on this team that I do not like is Ryan Cline. I have said plenty of positive things about the rest of the team.
You must be an incredibly unhappy person. I am so sorry. Life is way to short to not to enjoy it with those around you. Especially Boiler Nation. Good Luck and have a wonderful Thanksgiving!

What a coincidence, the only person I don't like on this forum is you.
Joyless people like you just bring everyone down.
Cherry picker. Your story went from "Cline never..." to "In this game, Cline didn't..."
Nice dump, Secretion of Doodie.
Plenty of positive things?! LOL. In your 41 posts you have focused on "the only player on this team you don't like". Did Ryan take your girlfriend? Go find another and move on with your life.
Incredibly tough stretch right there. Don't see us going into Ann Arbor and getting that W, and at Florida State will be very tough as well. At a minimum need to win at Texas and the Irish.
I agree. This is going to be a grind. This is a young team and they are going to struggle. We knew that going in so no surprises here.
However, this board is going to become unreadable with the negative Nancy's bouncing off the virtual walls here. I mean look at the noise level when we lost to a team that is ranked almost 10 spots higher than we are. Think about how these weak-spine thin-skinned keyboard jockeys are going to react if this team gets upset by a team that might not be ranked yet! Holy crap!
Me? I'm just going to root for my Boilers and enjoy the games. Remember, this year we are the hunters, not the hunted. No target on our back. No expectations of grandeur. We are the ones that will upset folks, and beat people we aren't supposed to.
Boiler up!Never knew there was a name for it but my son has the same. Left eye dominant. Shoots a gun and used to bat lefty but is right handed.
It's most common in twins when one of their arms is pinned next to the other twin and their free arm develops a bit more in the womb, but it is not what "would have been" their handedness.
I developed Strabismus when I was 64 ... I went to the Strabismus Specialist in Indy and sat in a waiting room with about a dozen parents with very young children. The Doc said I was the first patient he'd seen in months over like two years old.
Strabismus
Most of us are fortunate because our eyes started to work as a team very early in infancy and have continued to work together ever since. We are able to focus each eye on whatever we look at, regardless of the direction, and our brain combines the picture or image from each eye into the mental picture we actually see in three dimensions.
About two percent of every 100 children are not as fortunate. For a variety of reasons, their eyes do not work as a team. Both eyes are not directed or focused at the same object. This condition is called "strabismus."
The child with strabismus rarely complains. In most cases, it is the appearance of the eye that first catches the parent's attention. A child should be examined by an ophthalmologist whenever the eyes appear not to be working together.
There are three basic kinds of strabismus: esotropia, exotropia and hypertropia, depending on which direction the eyes are deviated.
Is this anything close to a wondering eye...where one eye appears to be looking in a direction different than the other?
NO, this is where if you look at a spreadsheet, one eye sees line 5 and the other sees line 7 ... depending on how bad it is. The surgery took five minutes. They pull your eyeball out, cut the muscle at the top, then reattach it a few degrees forward and pop it back in .
So, funny story the Doc said due to the brain compensating ... he just had to get the reattach close!!! LOL
Amblyopia
Amblyopia (lazy eye) is another frequent condition, occurring in about three or four of every 100 children. When a child is born with normal eyes, he or she has the potential for good vision in both eyes, but must learn to see with each of them. If for some reason, the child prefers to use one eye more than the other, the preferred eye learns to see well but the other suffers from lack of use. It does not learn to see as well, even with glasses. The non-preferred eye is said to be lazy or have amblyopia.
I think under the new NCAA rules, that's now a flagrant foul on Twin number 2.
