It is, and was, supply and demand. Since there was, and is, a lot more right handed shooters, there were a lot mor right hand recurves made. The down side for you is the lefties are not as common and the y show up less. The upside is that there is less demand for them , so they usually go for a lot less than righties. Be patient, they are aound. But you have to be ready to buy when they come available. In the long run, you will pay less for your left hand bows than I will for my right haders.
