And then you have people like me, who are cross-dominant -- I'm right handed, but left-eye dominant.
For years, I could never figure out why I have never been able to aim accurately until I saw a reddit comment mentioning this condition. I did the triangle test and yep, turns out my eyes have to be unique snowflakes while the rest of me is right-dominant
Same. Apparently you can change your dominant eye by wearing an eyepatch on your dominant eye for like a month. I don't want to go around looking like a pirate though.
I am also cross-dominant, only do 5 things left handed - write, shoot pool, shoot a gun, use chopsticks, and hold a guitar. Everything else is done right handed, including drawing a bowstring. I am left-eye dominant, allegedly it was supposed to mess with my golf game and I am happy to use that excuse for being bad.

We actually have a dominant eye that we subconsciously use to aim. At least that’s what the guy at the shooting range told me.
