Has anyone developed a bow that a lefty or right handy shooter could use I have in my mind a long bow that would work for either


I am drinking from my saucer cause my cup has overflowed. Thank you Lord

I've seen some compounds that have sort of a dual frame riser,don't know the name but I think those could be used either way. Recurves and longbows have been made in the past with dual shelves, but not so much any more. Bear polar comes to mind. Of course you could just build a longbow and shoot off your hand smile

Do you have an eye dominance issue or just wanting one? I am left eye dominant, write left handed, etc but can throw a ball with both and shoot right handed. I can shoot left but it's awkward because I learned to shoot righty. I'm all screwed up and if I didn't shoot instinctively, it would be much harder with my bow.


I hope we have once again reminded people that man is not free unless government is limited. There�s a clear cause and effect here that is as neat and predictable as a law of physics: as government expands, liberty contracts. � Ronald Reagan

Wasn’t there a bow that you shoot through the riser that was left or right handed...?

You could consider a thumb release for shooting the opposite handed bow because it will hold it the arrow on the shelf.

Watch this video at about the 6:15 minute mark he talks about the asian horseback archers.
