Who out there shoots both sides.......right and left handed

[ron w]

Been working on it for about a year and a half. Coming along pretty well. Some days left is better than right. who else can shoot both sides ... ????

[McDave]

I’ve shot both left and right for many years, primarily to keep my body in balance, but also because I just enjoy it.  I’m not as good shooting left handed, and probably never will be, as I only shoot about 1/4 as many arrows as I do right handed, but I shoot well enough to keep from losing many arrows.  There have been several times I have discovered something shooting left handed that I like, and have adopted it on the right side, and vice versa.

I have shot right hand for over 50 years, but left eye dominant. I want try left because of my eye dominance but also to balance my body work out. I do it in the gym so I figure it can’t hurt on the range. Maybe even hunting, have several dual shelf bows.

I shoot both left and right handed.  I'm  naturally lefthanded but am right eye dominate.  My form is better and I am more accurate shooting lefthanded....if I remember to keep the right eye closed.  For the past seven or eight years all my hunting has been right handed.

[Possum Head]

My brother in law does quiet well on either side.

[rraming]

My left side doesn't function like my right

[longbowman]

I can shoot both but limited to 60# left handed.

[bow loving man]

I can shoot either side. I often carry a dual shelf bow I made and have harvested game shooting Rh and LH.

 I shoot right and left handed also but I don't shoot worth a flip either way

I’m right handed but left eye dominant. I first picked up a bow almost 3 years ago and have been shooting exclusively left handed. I shoot instinctive, and since I’m generally more coordinated with all things right-handed, I figure I should be able to learn to shoot a right handed bow decently. I figure it would be fun, good for body balance, and finding bows will be easier.  However, since I just don’t seem to have enough time to practice my left hand shooting, I certainly don’t have the time to start working on right handed shooting.  Maybe some day...

Amphibious archer here or is it ambidextrous.   

I started shooting a left handed recurve last year.

[kadbow]

I can eat with both hands .

[kat]

Yup. I shoot equally lousy with both hands. 

[pavan]

Shooting equal both left and right hand is nothing special, but if you still hunt left and right footed to match, then you have something.

[Mike Mecredy]

I pretty much have to. 

[GCook]

My hat is off to those who can.

KAT , I can only dream of shooting as bad as you with either hand

[YosemiteSam]

For serious work, I shoot right handed.  But all my homemade bows are setup for left.  I have a couple with an ambidextrous pass and shoot them on both sides.  It would be good if I had a setup that allowed me to use whatever side I want on the fly.  But I'm still stronger with my right so hunting weight bows are still kind of a one-sided deal.

My initial motivation to shoot both sides was to help with neck tension.  If I only shoot one side, my neck gets all tight & knotted (I have an old neck injury).  But I'm an oddball in that I'm mostly right handed but there are a few things that I are easier to do with my left.  I have no eye dominance & have failed nearly every dominance test I've taken.  When shooting, I naturally take the sight picture I'm supposed to, depending on how I'm standing or holding a weapon.

Funny you should ask Ron.  I just sent Don Thomas an article I wrote entitled "dualism", and you are mentioned in the piece.  He said it's scheduled for the Dec/Jan of Traditional Bowhunter mag.
