Default RE: both eyes open?

You supposedly have chosen an anchor that puts your arrow directly under your dominant eye pupil, so thatshouldn't bean issue. At least, as long as your anchor isconsistent. If it really is an issue for you, you can close the off eye to make sure your anchor is there, then open it before you shoot. Might be a good way to get accustomed to keeping both eyes open
Great idea Art, thanks. And I do usually check to make sure I am anchored correctly.

I don't notice two arrows in my peripheral vision. I just now drew back and took notice though. I do see two arrows that merge at the tip.
OK, so I'm not nuts!

Same here
Good to know. I think that I may be seeing two arrows because I have shot with one eye open for such a long time. Any little change throughs me way off.

But, - it is something that I'm going to work on. I think it will be for the better. Just very new right now.

That's funny, I'm doing just the opposite. I was starting to make some decent improvement with both eyes open. I can see the trajectory so much better and I think my muscle memoryis making some decent improvement with my newstyle. Too bad I threw my back out last week, [:@], I was looking forward to doing some more shooting.
