And I need help fixing it. I am right handed, shoot a gun left handed, and am left eye dominant. I want to shoot a bow but do I get a left handed bow or right handed bow. With a right handed bow it is hard to see the sights, with a left handed bow the draw weight is significantly different. Any ideas?

Definitely get a Left handed bow!

That will be the natural way for you to learn to shoot!

I am left handed writer, but shoot a gun and bow right handed, and I am right eye dominant..

so my advice is to get a Left bow

beem through what you are going through and don't make the mistake I did. I am right handed and shoot a gun left. I am blind in right eye. I bought a right hand bow first and a month later bought a left hand bow. you will build strengh very quickly with practise. At first I could only shoot 4 shots and could not pull it back no more. I sit in house infront of tv and pull it back. My bow is set at 50 pounds. A month later I can pull it back as much as I want. I never could shoot the right handed bow very well but the left I am dead on with my aim. Hope this helps

X1...start with low poundage and work your way up.

Im righthanded too, but shoot everything lefthanded because im left eye dominant. get a lefthanded bow. you shoot it enough it will become natural.

Exactly my story. Go buy a leftie and have a blast. Be sure to get somebody at the bowshop to help you learn proper form, because its not real natural, but once you get the hang of it, you'll have a ball. Start low and slow. You'll be surprised how fast it all comes together.
