hey guys, first post, great site you got here
i just found out that i am left eye dominant, but right handed, i have been shooting my right handed bow for a while and i'm pretty accurate, should i get a LH bow or just stick with my RH? this kinda sucks theres probably not to many people that have a problem like this haha

Far more common than you might imagine. While I don't have that problem, many who have been through it would recommend switching to shoot with the dominant eye. Many of those who have made the switch have reported that it has helped their shooting, and in your cases, being fairly new, it seems this would be as good a time as any to make the change.
The good news is that used LH bows sometimes seem to be cheaper than comparable RH ones. At least it always seems that way to me when I see a great bow for sale at a great price but it is LH!
