Cross Eye Dominance (What is it, And Are You One Of Them?)

This video explains how to overcome cross-dominance in shooting, a condition where your dominant hand and eye are on opposite sides. It advises against bringing your head to the optic, instead recommending either turning your head to the optic (a temporary crutch) or, preferably, bringing the optic to your dominant eye. This latter method is more efficient as it involves aligning a moving object (firearm) with a stationary reference (dominant eye), reducing overall motion and increasing proficiency, especially with handguns.
