Are bow sights left or right handed?
Right-handed bows will be held by the left hand and drawn with the right, which means the arrow and sights will be on the left-hand side of the bow.
Do all bow sights fit all bows?
Let’s start with the basics. All compound bows have a series of threaded holes on the face of the riser opposite and above the shelf. These holes are universal; any sight you buy for a compound bow can be attached using those holes.

Are left-handed bows more expensive?
Lefty bows are the same price as right, although the selection of used bows is more limited.
Can a left-handed bow be changed to right-handed?
The answer isn’t a simple yes or no. Bows are manufactured differently for right- vs. left-handed people and most manufacturers don’t offer conversion as an option. Likewise, most experts don’t recommend it.
Are there left-handed bows?
So a left-handed bow means that you pull the bowstring to full draw with your left hand, and a right-handed bow is drawn with your right hand. The hand that you use to hold the bow while you’re shooting is always opposite to the handedness of the bow.
Can you shoot a left-handed bow right-handed?
The short answer is yes, it is possible to shoot a left-handed bow with your right hand. There are some circumstances where this might be useful, but it’s usually not recommended because most bows are designed to be used with a specific handedness.
Is a longer bow sight better?
Andrew,Moving the sight farther out makes for finer aiming (the pin moves more when you move the bow a small amount) if you are good at holding a bow steady. If you are not super steady at full draw, I would not opt for the extended sight arm. Unless you are going to compete, I would stick with hunting sights.
How many pins do you need on a bow sight?
If you bowhunt where shots are typically 30 yards and under, a 1- or 2-pin sight is a great choice. However, if you are stalking, a 30-yard shot often ends up being more of a wish than reality. So, this is where we typically lean toward a sight with as many as seven pins to cover any opportunity we might encounter.
What makes a bow sight better?
As a bow hunter you can simplify the selection process by keeping a few things in mind. Use the least number of pins possible, demand fully-supported and protected fiber optic pins and use a round pin guard that you can center inside a large peep sight. Follow these simple rules and you’ll be just fine.
