Just started out hunting and I have a right handed bow that my brother-in-law gave me that was his old one. He tried showing me how to shoot it with both eyes open, but it wasn’t happening. I can close my right eye with no problem but I can’t close my left, I guess I’m screwed up like that. I bought an eye patch to cover my left eye; How difficult is this actually going to be? I’m going bow hunting for the first time on Sept. 19th and I have been practicing everyday for about 30-45 mins just shooting in my backyard, but I may get a small group around every other set. So I guess my question is do I just suck it up and use the bow for the rest of the season and buy a left handed bow next year year or continue to try to try and use the patch until I perfect it.
