Hi, I am left eye dominant. Its easy to find out, it is the eye that you naturally use when taking photos using a camera. In theory i should place my cue directly under my left eye (hence left side of my chin), otherwise i will get parallex error (not hitting the white centre when pulling back). But it is hard to do. So what to do is, use your dominant eye to align the shot first, then move into the shot. this seems to reduce parallex error. For example, in the HK Euro Master snooker tournament, you will notice that James Wattana would close one eye when aligning for a rest shot. Other players such as Mark Selby:Ronnie O Sullivan; Tony Drago; all have left eye dominant and you will see their cues are to left hand side of their chins. Also, in recent years, Marco fu has also used the above described technique before moving into a shot. If you see his recent tournament, you will see he uses his left eye to align first.
