Ok for past 10 yrs have read some good ideals and techniques to improve shooting. I have got 1 for you now. I have a guy on my team that is colored blind , you figure so no big deal he just sees things in a different color. Correct you are but , he can not see the color white PERIOD........hence for tiles pot tile and such are in a sense not viewable down range to him. Are there others out there who are in the same boat and if so would you be so kind to share the way you taught/trained yourself to overcome this. Any help is appreciated as this gentleman is a good shot he just is frustrated?
Thanks for input and time on this.

Bob,

The only thing I could think of would be the target would block out any detail of the backstop (lines, troughs, ridges) and look plain (no detail). If he could pick out the areas with no detail that the target hides, and zero in on that, it might help him. Just a thought.

How about using a colored lense with your shooting glasses? This way there is no more white.
