After years of being frustrated by not being able to shoot a shotgun, I have decided to start shooting right-hand. I am a left with a dominant right eye.
I do already shoot a bow right handed and I can shoot my rifles right-handed if I take my time and have a steady rest. I haven't tried the shotgun too much, but have tried pistol/revolver right-handed with bad results so far.
Can anyone give me some pointers on the best way to switch.
Another problem might be caused by my left shoulder. I had open-heart surgery when I was 10 and I gave in to my left side due to the pain and soreness after the surgery. I asked a doctor years later and he said that might very well be the problem with my shoulder. If you really notice me when I am facing you, you will see that my left shoulder is lower than my right. I don't think the muscle that is in the shoulder/neck area is fully developed. I am not sure that this is a result from me giving in to that side after surgery or maybe a birth defect. I was born with congenital heart condition and some problems with my back.
Anyway, I would appreciate any help that you could give me. Thanks!
