Well Bob what about me, when I was making bows commercially nearly all the orders were for you right handers. I had to learn to shoot right handed as well. Back to front people I don't know. :wink: :lol:

Really don't know how people such as your good self,do adapt to shooting opposite hand, know a couple of others who have that skill and but sadly it is not something I can adapt to. Envious.

Nice work as always Bob, I love your willingness to use Australian Timber instead of some of the more Traditional OS Timber. There is an easy way around Left and Right handed Bows, loose the Arrow Shelf :lol:

thanks Perry. What is 'funny' is Americans love our timbers but so many here want to use their timbers, when ours are every bit as good in most cases.PS loved our yarn at Baramabah.
