Maybe I should
 
Switch to shooting leftie.

I finished the last of the big order bows, it was a leftie.

Well I wont send any bow out untill I have test shot it.

This is the first time I have ever shot left handed and I tell ya it was not that hard.

Here is a 6 arrow group from 20 yards not as tight as my groups right handed but it sure impressed the heck out of me:D

I was aiming for the blue dot just to the left of the group, but no matter if the target had been a live animal it would have been dead;)



Now who said you can't teach an old dog new tricks;)[8D]:):D

I bet that wore you out. It kills me to shoot in a bow left handed. I dont even move back to see how I shot. I shot from about 10 feet. But by the time ive put in 60-100 shots, as a south paw, im soar and wore out.

Russ, you right or left eye dominant?

I think that's the key to consistently tightest groups, no matter what handed a person is :)

Yeah it wore me out but if I practiced everyday left handed it would soon become easy.

Actually I am thinking that when I make the Hybrid I just might make it a double shelf bow, that way if an animal comes in on my right I wont have to turn to take the shot, just switch hands;)

When I could see:D I was right eye dominant:)

Always been right eye dominant and right handed for just about everything.

But I used to swictch from right handed to left handed when I was playing cricket, usually when the bowler had his line and lenght sorted out:D

I also used to carry a left handed club in my golf bag for those stray shots that ended up at the base of a tree.

Mate.

I have 2 replacement covers already out there;)

Kyle is building a new fence where the targets where so as soon as he has fihished that project we'll be moving the targets back and putting the new covers on.

The horses have been leaning over the old fence eating the bags[:@]

Good deal on the 18-1 it's a good target and should last you a couple of weeks:D

Yeah, as much as I've been shooting lately a couple of weeks wouldn't surprise me. Thank God for the 1 year guarantee.

Is cricket a real sport? Why would you carry a golf bag playing minature golf...most of us only carry a putter for that game!:D
