Two year convert to lefty bow. I shoot guns, eat and write left-handed but use tools and throw right handed. Not ambidextrous, just confused.

My first bow was a right-handed longbow my Grandmother gave me so I grew up shooting righty. Eye problems forced the switch to lefty.
Far West longbow and a Samick T/D Woodsman. Looking for a 3pc longbow this summer.

I'm right handed but shoot left handed.  I just returned to trad shooting about eight months and only have two bows, a Barta long bow and a Great Plains, Rio Bravo, but Monday I ordered a new PSAV.

I’m a right handed but left eye dominant.
Shoot bow and rifle-shotgun left-handed.
Every thing else right-handed
Have a Bear Montana 50#@28” coming in soon.

I keep on trying
My goals are high but I don't care
The fun is in the getting there, it justifies the end
So try, try again

I've shot from the Brooklyn side now for about 30 years. I'm left eye dominate but shot right handed, like I do most everything else, until a shoulder injury.

Martin Howatt Hunter - 35 lbs @ 28 - 29" draw
Martin Hatfield - 55 lbs $ 28 - 29" draw
Old Darton wheelbow - set at 60 peak with a 30.5 draw length.

I'm a Southpaw too.  Got a Bear Montana longbow in 55#, an old Bear Kodiak Hunter at 45#, an Old Ben Pearson at 55#, and have an Owl Bow on the way at 50#.  

Oh yeah, I still have the compound sitting in the closet getting dusty too.  It's a Hoyt at 60#, for what that's worth.  And an aincient Bear Polar Limited compound that was my first bow.  I disremember its draw wt.
