    I am right handed but left eye dominate so I am gonna try out shooting left handed.. I have tired shooting right hand before but I had trouble seeing correctly and gave up, this was years ago when I was younger had no idea what one eye could be strong than the other..

    Can I get a reasonable quality left hand ready to hunt setup for around $400? I have a hunting buddy (modern firearm) who has gotten really into archery lately and he has been asking if I would have interest in coming with him and I figure it could be worth it but I dont want to invest a TON if I dont like it.

    I dont mind new or used, but I just have no idea on what brand to look for, it seems like all brand had up and downs..

    I'm new at this also. I'm right eye dominate, but left handed. I got the Mathews Z7. Nice bow. I spent my entire life shooting pistols and rifles left handed, I'm not going to switch now. Although some experts will tell you it's best to keep both eyes open when shooting a bow, I just close my right eye and I haven't had a problem................yet.

    One thing I have learned in my short time to this forum is this: YOU DON'T PICK THE BOW, LET THE BOW PICK YOU.


    Best of luck to you.

    I can get you a Bear Charge RTH package w/ trophy ridge for $375 tyd or a Bear Strike for $375 tyd. The strike is a bare bow but could set you up with anything trophy ridge for a good price. Bows are brand new.
