That's funny....I actually shoot both pistols and bows right handed. And despite being a decent shot with long guns from either side. I'm absolutely horrible with a bow and pistol with my left (which is my more accurate side with long guns).

I only have 2 bolt action guns and oddly enough they are both right handed....because I grew up/learned how to shoot with a little bolt action 22 that was right handed, I never found it awkward to action the bolt. It just became a natural motion for my left hand to slide up the stock and action the bolt with my right hand. And even more odd is the fact despite being a pretty decent shot right handed (not my norm) I find it awkward as hell to action the bolt with my right hand when holding the gun right handed (which is basically the position I end up in after shooting left handed and then sliding my left hand up the gun to action the bolt with my right hand)

Weird how muscle memory and eye dominance develops you as a hunter!
