    Anyone else ever hunted for alog of years to have a ball dropped on them that its all wrong, as in how your doing it. Ive been hunting since i was 5, im now almost 26. With some odd ball techniques found that im left eye dominant and not right. So i have a whole cabinet full of right handed guns and my bow. I like the idea of buying new guns and a new bow. But this whole thing is just a bg shock to me. Anyone else?

    I am sure you aren't the first... or will be the last... I am left eye dom, shoot left, and do everything else right. Don't worry about the guns. I have no probs shooting both left and right handed guns. Ditch the bows... :) And yes... there are some things that I had learned from others that were all wrong. Some I came to my own consensus, some others have told me, which in some instances was embarrassing to say the least.

    Pretty simple really.
    Have 2 choices
    1) learn to shoot left handed.
    2) close your left eye when you shoot.

    However, if you look at photos of the vast majority of high end competition shooter, bows or firearms, you sill see them shooting with both eyes open. While I have been shooting bows for less time than a handful of folks on this site, I shot bullseye pistol long enough to know how this works.
