Archery has always been fairly difficult for me. I’ve always been my dad's hunting buddy, so when I finished my archery safety course he took me down to the sporting goods store and bought my first bow. I couldn’t have been more excited! We found a nice little white camo Mission by Mathews bow that seemed perfect for me! The staff got me all setup and I was ready to go.
However, something was very unclear and confusing: I’m right-handed but left-eye dominant. We were told it wouldn’t make any difference. We hit the road with smiles on our faces…and for a while it was great! But as I got a bit older, I couldn’t get any consistency with my bow. One group would be perfect, the next group would be high and to the left. We didn’t understand and tried everything until I finally hung up my bow and didn't touch it again.
I gave it to my little brother.
A Fresh Start
A few years passed and I went to a guide school where I met my boyfriend, Keegan. Keegan happened to be a big archery nut and couldn't understand why I didn’t still shoot archery. He took me to dinner and I told him all about it. He asked me which eye was dominant and asked why I was shooting right? I didn’t have an answer for him. A few months later I opened up the gift of a brand new bow–a lefty! I was so excited to get the ball rolling to see if it fixed my issue.
There was one more obstacle we had to face, draw weight. Since I am right-handed this was a big one for me. I’ve built up to draw weight but not the kind of weight that I feel I should be drawing in order to get good penetration on an elk. But I have found a solution!
