Like my dear Granmama used to say, “Never turn your back on left-handers, or goats.”
It’s that sort of invaluable advice that has gotten me to where I am today.
😆 Good motto to live by. Crookedstick shoots lefty, and I’ve always thought he was a bit shady. 😆
in reply to: Grayling TBH shoot 2011 #57577Nice pics! I’ll be there for sure next year. Hopefully the weather will be as nice as it was this year.

Don’t kill the messenger. I didn’t invent the definitions.
I’m still holding out for a definitive answer for the initial question. 🙂

I resemble that remark. 🙂
in reply to: Lamination Separation #56790Just a follow up. Steve repaired it for me, at no charge of course. Just like new.:D
Looking forward to getting my Whisper. Hopefully sooner than later, but the money’s a bit tight right now. 🙁

Apparently you guys misundersttod that comment.
sinistrality, sinistromanuality, or mancinism) is the preference for the left hand over the right for everyday activities such as writing.
Shooting lefthanded, I would be sinistral.
I rarely quote Wikipedia, but I thought well of its definition for “Sinister” (Definition #2) 😀 :“In the Middle Ages it was believed that when a person was writing with their left hand they were possessed by the Devil. (This was uncommon, particularly as there were fewer literate people). Left-handed people were therefore considered to be evil. Hence, the most common present-day meanings:
Threatening or portending evil, harm, or trouble; ominous: a sinister remark
Bad, evil, base, or wicked; fell: his sinister purposes
Unfortunate; disastrous; unfavorable: a sinister accident”Here’s my short hand version:
Left handers are evil.
in reply to: Interesting Waste of Time #56434To be honest, I would’ve expected to see exactly what you found. That’s why I don’t get the Cabela’s archery catalog anymore.
in reply to: Beginner's Mind #56362The article really strikes home for me because I have such a tendency to get too caught up in the technical aspects of everything I do. Then the magic/fun departs.
