Righty to Lefty

(1/3) > >>

Dave 55:
Ive had to switch from shooting right hand,right eye dominant and its definantley a work in progress,well that may be putting too good of a face on it.Seems with my right eye closed instintive goes out the window and gapping seems more natural,but thats not too natural either,have any of you gone thru this or have any advise,I could use it.. :(

Pat B:
I've tried shooting lefty and I understand your pain.  ;)
  I have heard that if you are shooting instinctive it doesn't matter which eye is dominant. Have you tried shooting lefty with both eyes open?

Dave 55:
Yes I have tried that Pat and when I shoot left handed with both eyes open only God knows where that arrows going.

TBod:
I switched a couple years ago from right to left. I still have to close my right eye and I think I shoot instinctive. A couple weeks ago I tried shooting right again and it felt very strange. It was worth it for me anyway, god luck!

Pat B:
You are going to have to train your mind as well as your body for the change.
  Shooting with only one eye limits your vision and eliminated your depth perception. Parctice, practice, practice!
