I shoot both left and right, dont see much diff in accuracy. Its more natural for me to shoot left though.

Most of my buddies are leftys so I am "left out" from shooting all their new bows......
Bowhunting is "KILL and EAT" not "Catch and Release".....Semper Fi!

Well, I'm a lefty as well.  Left eye dominant.  I hope there are several LH models to look at during the Tannehill Shoot in August.

I've stuggled with being a lefty in a righty world for so long...I've never been to any archery shows since they don't put on many out west. But my answer to the problem is I look at right handed stuff and if possible order a left handed version or take pictures and try and build it myself...works most the time.

I agree...you lefties are getting short-changed.  :(  

But just think of all the money you're saving.   :bigsmyl:

just started into archery this summer and have had a grand time being a lefty! i'm right handed in the rest of life but am left eye dominant and now that i've been shooting this way for a month and a half it already feels "right."

(Dean's gift of my beautiful LH Fred Bear didn't hurt matters either, thanks again, friend!)

it's fun to watch the guys i'm living with for the summer try to shoot my bows though, it throws them off enough that they're traditional (and not wheelies), and on top of that they have to switch arms. it's a hoot!

I am as "left handed" as you can be. Write, throw, phone hand, drive...ect... But the Lord did bless me making me right eye dominant. Plus my Dad brought home a right handed recurve for me when I was little (30+years later I still have that bow). So it has been right handed archery and guns my whole life.

About the only time I feel my Left Handed brothers pain is when I try to find a new ball glove. What a pain, sometimes there are exactly ZERO to choose from.
