Slinging.org Forum - Pinhole focus glasses for precision

AncientCraftwork Interfector Viris Spurii Offline Posts: 2403	Pinhole focus glasses for precision May 15^th, 2021 at 7:42am I made myself some simple stenopeic glasses. Two leather flaps with a little hole perforated for the eye sight. It gives a form of very narrow but well focused tunnel vision. I wonder if it would be good for accuracy? To focus on the target without distractions.

Pinhole glasses reduce your field of view and help things in view to be in focus... it seems like it’ll only help if your main problem is seeing the target because it’s blurry or if you’re distracted by things in your peripheral vision.

It might be useful for long distance because then I can still see the target through the holes when I do the cast. But maybe it also interferes with instinctual disance calculation and full vision is better.

A slinger also move laterally. I see where you are going with the pinhole idea but since your are moving it might be better to use something like this since it would allow you to see a longer range of motion but still restrict it to tunnel vision.

Those glasses must be to protect against razor glandes.

To truly test it, you must be dressed like a bear.
