So I've been practicing this and just wanted to pass along how crazy it is 
.
Thing is I'm learing to focus one eye only and starting to be able to control which eye my brain is seeing out of. What I've learned so far:
-Quality optics make all the difference. My brain doesn't seem to like it when I look through lower end glass and tries to choose the non dominant eye. So this is best learnt using a better optic.
-Irons take quite a bit of practice, I can do it with an optic fine but damn the irons are difficult, especially the vz58 ones.
-I started by closing the non dominant eye so I could focus through the optic then opened both eyes still focussing through the optic. When focus drifts, I close the non dominant eye long enough to regain focus through the optic and repeat till you get better at focusing with your dominant eye at will.
I've been doing this mostly at home. I put a piece of paper with a small dot (about 1/4") on the wall about 30-40 feet away (end of the hall) and just hold the weapon in position targeting the dot. then I practice target aquisition buy repeatedly bringing the weapon up and targeting the dot about 20 times in a row. Onother benefit of these daily exercises is that my off hand shooting has improved quite a bit.
If anyone else has anything to add to this please feel free.
