Doe Dumper, that sounds exactly like me....
I am probably a freak of nature. I am left handed, but then right handed at this, but then left handed at that. Go figure...

I remember trying in vain to qualify on the M-16 in USCG boot camp decades ago. I remember telling the range instructor that I am left handed and grew up shooting lefty. I was one of those kind of people... So then they put on this funny looking shroud thing over the ejection port so a lefty wouldn't get biffed... As soon as they did that - bingo! I qualified and darn near made sharpshooter!

As it stands now, my Remington 870 12GA is a lefty version. But my Marlin 30-30 is standard righty (nobody makes a lefty lever gun). I shoot the old 30-30 just like I shoot my boyhood Marlin Model 60 .22lr rifle. I just angle my right elbow downwards a bit so my right forearm won't get biffed by an ejecting shell.

With compound bows, if you're left eye dominant is is extremely advisable to shoot a lefty bow. My old PSE bow was lefty and my new compound bow will also be lefty.

Believe me, I have held firearms right handed and they just feel weird and uncomfortable. I just can't do it... With shooting, it's either lefty or nothing.

As far as left handed versus right handed, try to figure this one out!!!!
Handwriting - left handed
Golf - right handed
Baseball (bat) - right handed
Baseball (throw) - left handed
Football (throw) - right handed
Football (punt/kick) - left footed
