J Darcy 5,871 Posted December 11, 2008 Report Share Posted December 11, 2008 For the bow you should really go with the master eye. However, if your naturally "handed" the other way round it will be most difficult. I was always the other way....still, you get used to what you get used to.....

OldTrapCollector 377 Posted December 11, 2008 Report Share Posted December 11, 2008 Just to confuse matters I have a strong right master eye and am very right handed. I hold a bow with my left hand and a catapult with my right OTC Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I hold a bow with my left hand and a catapult with my right OTC Same here, I reckon it's because the hand that is asked to do the most aiming and movement is the one that is used for the difficult job, ie. releasing the arrow or flicking the catapult. Having said that, I don't really know Quote Link to post Share on other sites

dfee 1 Posted December 11, 2008 Report Share Posted December 11, 2008 (edited) im left handed,i shoot left handed i use a catty in my left hand and a bow in my left hand im not sure if thats the right way round for a lefty but i used to hunt with a catty a fair bit and got quite good with it i cant use one at all the other way round.edited to say i dnt think the eye is as important when shooting with a catty i think its more of a reflex thing i dont really aim as such but just lift and shoot Edited December 11, 2008 by dfee Quote Link to post Share on other sites
