Hey Folks,
Thought I'd come over on this side of the boards and ask for some advice.
Several years ago I shot trad gear. Never got terribly good at it, but had fun, and bought a few custom bows. However an old lower back injury as well as some target panic finally pushed me back to compounds.
Now when I used to shoot trad gear I shot left handed equipment...because I'm left eye dominant..but I'm right handed (and shoot compounds right handed but have to close my left eye)
I've been getting the itch to pick up a longbow again, but I know that I won't be able to shoot lefty for long if at all before I start hurting again. What are everyone's thoughts on shooting cross dominant? Some folks say yes, some say they shot much better with the dominant eye over the arrow, etc..I've read all the books like Instinctive archery insights, Fred Asbells books, Become the Arrow, etc..seems everyone has an opinion one way or the other.
What do y'all think? should I give the righty a go? or am I wasting my time?
Thanx in advance for comments
