    Shoot both left and right .
    Up until 8 years ago shot left handed for 36 years , taught myself to shot right handed and now shoot right hand most of the time .
    The only reason i changed ,had enough of paying more for left handed guns

    I right with my right hand but my hand writing is poor. I went to school at a time when a leftie was unlucky so I was forced to be right handed. I am left eye dominant but can shoot left or right handed using a scope.
    You can spend thousands and still miss a barn door or spend just enough and enjoy yourself. If you haven't got the talent to start with a million pound won't fix it. Whippet, Russell, a few bang sticks and a flat cap. http://www.smart-tech1st.co.uk

    There's a woman in the Biathlon world champs who used to shoot right eye but had an eye injury & now shoots left eye but right handed with an offset stock.

    Right handed for shooting and everything else (inc. scratching goolies and aris)

    Right eye dominant for everything.

    When stuck in a left hand corner, i use my son who is left handed

    except for "boob" fondling, when my left hand has preference......i sleep on the right

    I shoot right-handed for the same reason although i'm left handed. I was shooting my 77 left handed the other day as its ambi and it actually felt weird after using the rifles right-handed

    Golf cricket baseball throwing the hammer left handed,pen axe javelin and shooting right handed. I read some where that only 10% of people in Britain are lefties but only 3% of golfers play left handed. There seems to be a high percentage of left handed shooters according to the poll.

    Totally right handed, but I lost the sight in my right eye 45 years ago. I can shoot left or right handed TX's with equal ease and load with left or right hand. My daughter taught herself to write left handed as an infant, but she is mostly a righty. She plays piano at a high level and I've seen her cross hands and play backwards. I can hardly fathom how she does it.

    Interesting thread, right handed for the most part, years ago I could shoot a pistol both left and right handed, but rifle has always been right handed

    When I was younger and played cricket, I bowled right handed and batted left handed

    A very interesting thread !
    I think many of "Us Lefties" are being drawn to this thread and voting accordingly but if that ratio was, lets say to be reflected over 500 voters, or more, I reckon Air Arms may as well start producing those Lefty Pro Sports assuming we all wanted one (or two) of course !
