Particularly great for those with dominant eye other than the corresponding hand . It's a great video . Self defense scenario will almost always require this technique

Thanks for the share. This is something I have to work on. I often find it difficult to focus with both eyes either with the shotgun or pistol. Having started with the old school rifle shooting is the reason, I suppose.

@Vikram, that's not unusual at all. However, you can start off by "blinding" the other eye by attaching a piece of paper to a headband and shooting with both eyes open. Eventually, you should be able to remove the blinder and shoot with both eyes open.
