Personally, I'm right eye dominate but I have heard different opinions. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites DSE 3 #4 November 12, 2006 Paul, Phree, or one of the other significantly more experienced guys can provide better answers than I can, but from what I've been told/shown; Sight goes over dominant eye, or if you're concerned about hanging up lines, put it on the side opposite of your dumpside. So if you're like most, you dump on the right, which would put the ringsite on your left. Mine is cut to very low profile, so I have it on the right, simply because I'm right eye dominant. And my hackey is on the right.

I chose my right because I have my visual alti on my left hand and like to be able to look at that without the ringsights interference.Livin' on the Edge... sleeping with my rigger's wife...

Over my left because it's the same side as the camera. Having the site closer to the lens seemed to make sense from an aiming standpoint and if you tilt your head at all during deployment to get your camera out of the way then you're not bringing the site towards the lines on the other side. Of course I'm a brand newbie at this stuff so take that into consideration before listening to my advice Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Join the conversation You can post now and register later.
