Righthand vs lefthand

[Vaquero]

This morning I was trying out a new load for the Savage Axis, a 62 gr blemish that I got from Midway last Summer. Loaded over 24.5 grs of LVR.
Weren't bad, but not quite as tight as a load I have with the CFE, but some of that could be the operator.
Anyway earlier I was messing with brm in one of his threads, he's a lefty. And I used to practice shooting left handed, it can come in handy.
I have actually killed quite a few deer shooting left handed. yes really.
So after that I decided to load 5 more and give it a go.

Good shooting’. Your point of impact changed.

I’ve learned to shoot equally bad both right and left handed. I’m naturally a lefty but live in a right world so I have learned to do most things with both hands.

I can even switch eyes.

When my son graduated from Marine boot camp in San Diego we went and watched. It was the time of the great fires around San Diego and not much was open so we went to the beach and found several small stores open. There was a store for lefties only, I was in 7th heaven. I bought a pair of left handed scissors. Still have them today and NOBODY uses them but me. I am extremely left handed but I have learned to use handgun right handed but have a tough time with a rifle.

When I was a kid my mother changed me as she saw I was using my left more than my right. I wished she would have left me alone so I could be weird like all you leftys

I'm right handed, but use the left quite a bit also. Not what you'd call ambidextrous, but somewhat. I had rotator cuff surgery a few yrs ago, put my left arm totally out of commission for months. Got to wondering, how am I gonna handle shooting my pistol if the SHTF. So, I had a Co2 BB pistol, tried it left handed. I was knocking a tin can around the yard rather easily with it. Ordered another holster, L. handed. In business. Found out I could do about as well with either.
Never know til you try it.

I am a normal right handed shooter. My son is left handed despite tying his left arm behind his back as a kid !

Anyway, I have always practiced loading and shooting all of my pistols with my left hand only in case I was wounded in my right arm/hand and could not function.

Good idea. you never know if you're going to lose your strong hand.
