[0:00]If you're on this video, then you've probably watched a video where it says, well, pros aim different from you because they're watching their target and not their crosshair. Then this is about how you feel when you try it yourself.

[0:16]Most people that haven't trained it before, struggle with learning how to stare at the target versus your crosshair and when to do each. With a quick search, you can find many pro players opinions on this, but I found my very own method that I'm going to share with you by the end of this video. That I've heard few people ever mention. The first tip is the complete basics, a general rule when you first try learning how and when to stare at your target or crosshair. Is to focus on the crosshair when your enemy is far and focus on your target when they're close. You may have experienced this for yourself in a game. Have you ever watched someone swing a close angle, and then it feels like they're moving at light speed and they're impossible to hit. Or maybe someone strafing the distance and it feels like you're on target, but they always move right before your shot. Well, with the application of only this tip, you can stop missing those and getting kicked from those clutch or kick scenarios. Now you're finally looking in the right places, but something still feels off. To describe this tip, I'll use an analogy of driving a car. When you're driving, you have to look at everything all at the same time, but you also need to focus on other things like pedestrians, other cars, and your mirrors. This is often a huge separator for new drivers versus experienced veterans. If you only focus on one specific thing when you're driving, you'll crash, and the same is true for FPS games. If you only stare at one point, you'll die. So, drivers learn how to master the art of using their peripheral vision to take care of watching their surroundings. So, I'll give you a few easy drills that you can use to train your peripheral vision. If you want to use an aim trainer, find your favorite map that has large targets in it. Next, stare completely at your crosshair, almost tunnel visioning on it. Now, without shifting your gaze, flick to each target. This will help you learn what it feels like to use your peripheral vision and improve the level at which you're able to use it. If you'd prefer to practice in your game of choice, the same can be done just in whatever practice range that your game has. It's all about focusing on the center of your screen and flicking to targets without shifting your gaze. Now, before we continue, I'd like to teach you about how I take care of my eyes, even while staring at a screen for over 15 hours a day. I've had a lot of trouble with my eyes in the past, to the point where it gave me headaches, and I was unable to continue playing for the day. But years ago, I found this YouTube video that goes through exact stretches that you can use for your eyes any age. Now that you can use your peripheral vision efficiently, it's time to start aiming like a pro. Most of the best aimers in the world focus on a mix of their target and their crosshair. They pay attention to their target, reading their movements, and then they flick near the target, lining up their crosshair to take a shot. But now you may realize how hard it is to track quick targets with your eyes, and this is where the final tip comes in. I learned this tip after owning my very first cat. Cats are notorious for their quick reflexes, and one day I was watching my cat hunt a fly. And I saw how easily she was able to keep track of it. So, I began trying to do the same. It wasn't long until I lost the fly because it was too quick for me to track with my eyes. This led me to this tip, which is about practicing your visual prowess. Some do this through staring at a ceiling fan blade. Others play sports like baseball, football, and some people may do what I did. They may track flying bugs or flying objects. It doesn't matter how you practice, as long as you practice with tracking quicker and quicker targets with your eyes. Most people only practice the hand portion of hand eye coordination, while they completely forget about training their eyes. Also, while you can achieve the same results for aim trainers, I found it much easier to track real targets with my eyes.
