hunter60, I feel your pain. I'm a fellow south paw and there is just no easy way to find a bow for us. I actually taught myself how to shoot righty so I could try out some bows, but I didn't get a good feel for them doing that. As for your question, Lancaster Archery Supply is here in PA and they have a very large selection of bows. If you call them they can tell you what lefty bows they have in stock.

Good luck.

As a rule left handed bows are not stocked but that doesn't mean you can't shoot a right handed bow left handed to get the feel of the bow. I do it all the time, doesn't hamper anything except putting the arrow on the other side of the bow.

Left handed???? What are you wierd or something??? You should have went to catholic school... the nuns would have forced you to become right handed.
