Default RE: Buying a Used Bow???

I plan on going to the bow shop here real soon and see if I can try out a few bows.I need to wait a bit becauseI got freakin poison oak all over my arms from being in the woods all weekend.But I have a question first though.As I mentioned in my first post above I have trouble pulling the bow back with my right and not a problem at all with my left.However I am right eye dominant.Since i'm such a novice at bow hunting should I stick to using my right arm?I don't wontto go start shooting a bow with my left armand training my left eye and throw my right eye off when using a scope on a rifle or anything.I'm basically trying to figure out if I should even consider using my left arm because I rifle hunt with a scope as well on my right.I was'nt sure if it could cause me to be uncomfortable going from shooting a bow with my left eye then switching to my right with my rifle.Do I make anysense to you guys?
Thanks,
JE

If starting from scratch I would tend to try to shoot with my dominant eye...in this case your right eye and hand. In the long run I think it will make the shooting process easier.
