Switch hitter
I made the mistake (no mistake really) of visiting with Len yeasterday. Before I left I had a new bow and he had talked me into shooting right handed [&:]. He suggested this because I am opposit eye dominate and if he can do it anyone can. I was very hesitant at first, very awkard but after a few shots at 40# and a few at 50 and even one at 61 that he didn't tell me he cranked up that high it started feeling better. I even knocked one of his nocks off and was grouping very tight. This will open a whole new world of opportunity being able to shoot both left and right handed with the same bow. I can't beleive I bought a right handed bow but being his pupil I will only get better. I think I will be very happy.

RE: Switch hitter
Thank God, I thought this about about something totaly differnt!!!!
Len has a way of just telling you how it is, and when he does, you should listen.
Glad to see you still "hitting" for the home team as well, LOL

RE: Switch hitter
You probably had problems picking up the flight of the ball lefthanded and shooting a bow with your dominant eye will most likely yield better results also.It will also be muchg easier to shoot with both eyes open.
My daughter is the same.She is right handed and shoots a gun and bow left handed because of her eye dominance.I have moved her to the left side of the plate for softball and she is seeing the ball MUCH better.She used to be WAY behind the ball and now her timing is about right.
