The Essex Hunter Posted January 22, 2011 Report Share Posted January 22, 2011 Being left-handed, I come across many things that I have to use that are made for the right-handed world; According to statistics, around 5 to 30 % of us are left-handed. It is just a way of life, Even my shooting coat has the little pockets on the left side, thus leaving the right side smooth. I have a couple of camo tee shirts for the summer and had to cut the pocket off the left side as it would just catch the butt enough to niggle me so off they came. Rough shooting with my right-handed friend is a great advantage as both guns naturally face away from each other. I wonder if the statistics are the same on here with the Pigeon Watch Members.

Chard Posted January 22, 2011 Report Share Posted January 22, 2011 I think 8-15% is the most sensible guesstimate I've seen. I think 30% is wildly inaccurate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jb1 Posted January 23, 2011 Report Share Posted January 23, 2011 I am in A syndicate of 8 guns and 6 of us are left handed, probably know just as many left handed shots as right handed to be honest. I am right handed for writing and most other things but shoot off my left shoulder Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
