Do we have any Left hand traditional guys?
« on: July 21, 2010, 10:05:53 AM »
Just wondering how many of you are lefties, and what equipment are you using. Just in case we go by the books, Recurve shooters as well.

I shoot left handed from time to time just to see if I can place an arrow up close. I have a replica Bear Compas Kodiak with dual shelfs that was made by Tim Meigs. It's a great bow & fun to try shooting lefty. It's kind of a challenge because I'm extreemly right eye dominant.

I'm a right handed, left eye dominant, left hand shooter with a 32" draw length. I cannot make my self shoot right handed. Guns either, it has to be left handed. I do everything else right handed.

I shoot an Old Ben Pearson Mustang(I think its a 1964 model) that I bought on E-bay for $35 plus shipping with Goldtip carbons that I've had for 10 or so years that I used to shoot out of my compound. My set-up with older 145 grain Bear Razorheads(that I've also had for many years) works very well, although I'm yet to take a deer with traditional equipment.

Sold my left-handed wheelbow years ago; shoot nuthin' but vintage LH recurves! Pearson, Shakespeare, Black Hawk, and a 1962 Bear Kodiak Magnum that I don't shoot (stacks too bad with my long draw), but I can't bring myself to sell or trade it -- just too purdy! Shoot all the rest of 'em, though.
Thanks for opening this thread, Big Nasty!

I'm left-handed, but shoot with my right, but occassionally I'll shoot my fiberglass recurve  left-handed just to see if I can still put them where it counts. Not as accurate as I am right-handed, but I can still put them in the kill zone.
