During advanced weapons training in the Navy, those that had no idea what their dominant eye were told to pick a spot about 20-30 down range. After fixating on a spot they were instructed touch their index fingers and their thumbs with their palms facing the spot. The point was to make a diamond shape which they could use as a viewing pane. After doing this the following objective was to position the "diamond" so that you could see the spot through the diamond with both eyes. Once to could see it with both eyes you would close one eye at a time.
You will notice that you'll only be able to see the spot with one eye. That will be your dominant eye.
So cool! Just tried it and yup, my right eye is dominant. Guess I had that figured already from 20+ years of shooting with my right eye, eh? But I'm still oddly excited about how that test works. :geek: (Yes, I really am a geek.)
