Most would go with the right on this. I believe that any person can shoot left or right handed equally well as long as the arm strength and eyes work the brain can work out the differences. I've always tried to do everything ambidextrously and taught my son the same. I can shoot bows or guns right or left handed as well as throw baseballs with either arm. If you use arms equally you will become ambidextrous.

Definitely a right-hand bow for you.

I shot bow right-handed for years just because there wasn't much option for lefties. Just now got my first lefty bow, a custom made recurve. I shoot a gun lefty and I'm left eye dominant.

"Right hand" bows are held in the left hand !

Think about this... Throwing a baseball if you are right handed you throw with your right hand (holding and catching ball with left) holding bow in your left hand pull string back right hand... if you are right handed everything you do that requires you to stand sideways you will typically stand left foot first so you would have to get a right handed bow..think about that too.. but I mean shoot the bow both ways and find out which way is more comfortable for you..

Right handed for sure. You might not have the strength to draw back in your left with a lefty bow.

Right handed. you wouldn't hit a broad side of a barn if you got a left handed bow.
