Are most bball players right eyed dominant?

I shoot right handed but am left eye dominant. Just curious as to what most on here are.

I think most people are same eye...im the same as you though. Seems like things would line up better when your dominant hand and dominant eye are on the same side. For example you and I have to close our left eye if we try to shoot a scoped rifle where as most good shooters are trained to shoot with both eyes open.

Really .. I used to "play" with my dads 7 mm rifle when I was a kid .. It was scoped and I would have to close one eye .. Thought everyone did

How do I determine which eye is dominant? I'm right handed but have better vision in my left eye. Is that the dominant one?

I guess I must be right eye dominant, since I have a patch over my left eye.

I honestly had no idea that you could be right or left eye dominant. Well, unless you were a member of TLC.

I'm right handed but have a lazy right eye, so I'm very left eye dominant. I didn't realize it until I had to try to pass a depth perception test.

Nice, thanks!

Apparently I'm left eye dominant.

I'm left-handed with a left lazy eye. Being right eye dominant and doing almost everything left handed is interesting. Failing depth perception tests kept me off the flight deck in the Navy.

It's never really affected me in my everyday life. Sometimes I wonder if I would've been better at sports with better depth perception. It's not that I was bad, but I've never been much of a shooter and couldn't judge a fly ball or punt to save my life. I wonder how different that would've been with decent depth perception.

I could never hit a baseball to save my life and fielding wasn't much better. I've always had a pretty good jump shot but that has more to do with muscle memory from a lot of practice than depth perception. On the other hand, I've never had a fear of heights. 10 feet, 20, 30; what's the difference?
