Default Brand Newbie Question: Lt hand shooting Rt hand bow

Hey guys,

My name is Scott and I'm new to bow shooting/hunting. I shoot left-handed and want to know ifaleft-handed guy can shoot a right-handed bow without problems. Can aRt.H bow be set-up for a lefty?? Any tips??

Ishot my buddies Rt.H bow (first time ever shooting), and it seemedto work fine since I hit where I was aiming at 30 yards. I tried shooting it right-handed,but my vision in my right eye is horriblesoI couldn't really tell a difference.As far as comfort goes.....it wasn't that great but I can live with it.

The peep hole was really "wide" and it wasn't"real easy" finding the center with the pin, but I don't know if that would be the same if I was shooting it the correct way???......bad vision sucks.

Anyhow, all of the deals I find or hear about are forright-handedbows. Not having all that much money, I don't want to invest in a lefty until I know I will stick with it. Plus, I could sell off a righty alot easier (at work or to a buddie) than a lefty. If I do stick with it, I imagine I will be invest more dough and go to the correct bow......unless I get really good shooting a righty!!!

Any help and advice is much appreciated.

Thanks,

Scott

Right handed
Left eye dominate

I do everything with my right-handed, but I do shoot firearms as a lefty would.
