IN SEARCH OF LEFT-HANDED BOW

[hpg1995]

In search of a left-handed bow, My draw length is 30" Im hoping to find something a little newer (within the last 10 years) and an ATA of 33-34. Hopefully I can find what I need thanks.

Do you already have an older bow (if so, which one), or are you just starting out?

I have an old cabellas instigator, it’s nothing special, haven’t shot it in 11-12 years.the draw length is to short for me now. Looking to get something slightly newer and nicer but doesn’t need to be over the top which is why I’m looking for a used bow first.

Budget and have you been to a shop to shoot anything recently? Easier to find a bow if you know a starting point of what you would like. It would also narrow down a draw length and lessen the possibility of buying a mistake.

Lefty here. If you are that green, it's always a good idea to go to a shop for that first bow ( you are long out of it) and shoot some and while in the process the shop guys can help with your DL, loop, release, form, etc.

Lefty bows are definitely harder to find....I see used ones on the various websites but for a new guy you could easily end up with something that either doesn't fit you or you don't like.

One key is to make sure the DL is adjustable and you don't need a complete cam swap to change DL. I have a backup lefty Bowtech Realm X that fits that description and would work, mine is tuned and set at 30" DL....but I haven't considered selling it.

I'm a lefty and I have a couple bows that I never considered selling, but at this point I'm not sure I will ever use them again. They're a little older than 10 years but still great bows. I even have 30" draw mods for one of them. I shoot 32"+ draw.
