I'll leave that one alone.

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

I've seen it more than once as a young pup, motivated me to train, train, then train some more.

On that note, I purchased a premier body armor insert for my backpack that I travel with last month. Fits like a champ, and before I hit the road I did some range work and slipped the insert under my T-shirt to see if it would be stable. Not as good as true soft body armor, but in a pinch it worked really well. I was surprised that it did not shift very much.

My dad was right handed but played golf left handed.

My son is left handed but plays golf right handed.

What a family.

Both did/do all other tasks with the strong hand.

Another lefty here. I too shoot right-handed on occasion, both pistols and rifles, just to keep the ability. Like Vaquero, it came in handy when shooting deer on my "off" side.
Have a few left-hand bolt actions, but Henrys don't care which side you shoot from.

I'm right handed and shoot right handed. Because of shooting in competition that requires shooting weak hand, with a lot of practice I've become an acceptable left-handed pistol shooter. The problem is shooting left handed I still use my dominate right eye to sight. With a pistol this requires a canting the pistol to use my right eye. I've never tried shooting a rifle left handed.

My son is right handed but left eye dominate. He shoots a pistol right handed, but shoots a rifle left handed.

My problem at the moment is a developing cataract in the left eye, not operator able at this time they say.
Just a little cloudy, with the scope I can manage, but not so much with the open sights.
It doesn't hinder my day to day dealings, so will have to deal with it a little longer.

Same issue here, small cataract developing, not enough to deal with at this time. Think I'm falling apart, one chunk at a time.

.Left handed and left eye dominant . always shot left handed. This was quite advantageous in the army especially sitting on the right side of the hummv and on the right sector of a patrol formation, I didn't have to turn to get a sight picture, I let a few righties try my left hand bolt gun (it's laughable) yet I can shoot a righty bolt no issues.. right handed people were never forced to adapt ... Lefties are far superior!!
