righthanded or lefthanded recurve
Doh. I have a recurve (garage sale, $5) and I don't know how in the sam hill to tell if it's a righty or a lefty. I know w/ my compoundI hold it w/ my right hand and look w/ my left eye. But w/ the recurve (unstrung) the limbs are pointing away from me, correct? And the a lefty bow the shelf is on the right? That seems backwards. Sorry for the basic question.
