In the specific case where you Detect in turn 1 and shoot in turn 2, that seems plausible.

If you have multiple actions per turn, or have Detect with reduced time or Reflexive, or (if you accept my suggestion) are going with -2 to Detect and -2 to the attack roll, I think you're not shooting blind.
