What Do I Do Now??
« on: May 18, 2007, 10:00:00 AM »
For 21 years....including the last year of "traditional only".....I have shot right handed.
 
Now...as an instructor in the "Archery in the Schools Program".....I just discovered that I'm left eye dominant!!!  :eek:  

I've got three right hand bows....including a Black Widow!!!  :scared:  

Seriously.....your thoughts??   :help:  

As per my shooting....I do alright. Been at traditional one year now....have 2 deer and 2 turkeys down.
When the journey becomes as valuable as the goal........go "traditional."

I would say that if you got 2 deer and 2 turkeys last year shooting like you do now, I wouldn't change a darn thing.  Happy Birthday by the way.

Sounds like you're doing fine so why mess with it?

I'm left eye dominant and shoot right handed and always have, both gun and bow.  I shoot with both eyes open and it doesn't seem to affect me any but I shoot instinctive (my bow at least, and sometimes my gun  :)  )

Some will say change and some will say it don't matter. Jay Kidwell addresses this in his book also. He says it don't matter.

I shoot that way and the eyes never cause me a problem. If I concentrate right...I usually kill
