One of the things we ask is whether you are right or left eye dominant. This may sound odd but it is a factor in archery and knowing this will help us to have to the right amount of equipment available to use on the course for all participants. We will test this again on the day but it would be really helpful if you could do this yourself and give us the result. The link below is a YouTube video with 2 ways to test yourself, you may need someone to assist you. The video does give 3 ways, but you are unlikely to have the equipment for the 3rd option.
