Default RE: Right hand shooting with a left hand bow

Sometimes I think people lose sight of why they are shooting a bow. For hunting, there is an obligation to shoot the bow that makes you the most accurate. For everything else you can do what you want - the idea is to enjoy yourself. I am right handed, but sometimes shoot a lefty bow left and right. You lose depth perception I am told using the non dominant eye. I am definitely not as accurate. I can pull more weight with my left arm - maybe because my left shoulder has less mileage on it, so it sometimes is a welcome break in a long shooting session.

Once or twice I mentioned to shop pros that I do this but I have stopped talking about it because of all the negative comments.
