'Zen and the Art of Archery'  It's an interesting feeling when it all 
clicks. I always shot stick bows right handed with no sights. On good days 
it just happens. When my right eye developed a cataract I switched to a 
left handed compound bow. Compound bows have a sights and I could use them 
effectively. Time goes on and I had a couple of operations on my left eye 
and couldn't use the sights effectively. I was going to give the bow away 
but then realized I'd always shot recurves instinctively, why not 
compounds. I took the sights off and it seems to be working.

Handguns can be the same. The sights are there and you sort of see them 
but when you're firing in under .3 seconds there isn't a whole lot of 
thinking going on.
