I am left handed. Does that matter w/ this crossbow? Are crossbows made made for particular "handed"-ness?

No being left handed does not matter. I am also left handed and the bow shoots just fineMy friends shoot right and we have no problem.

The crossbow works just as well left handed as right handed. I actually use it both ways and practice both ways so that it improves my shot radius. Your safe buying this bow if your left handed. It's a great bow for the price. I would not spend a fine more for other bows.

No, this is a left handed now. The "Lh" indicates that. I accidentally ordered it and had to return it. Righties should look for a "RH" in the description :)

Yes, that makes you left-handed. No, it would be uncomfortable/unsafe to use the saw in that manner. You need a left-handed saw; they are available (unsure about on Amazon).

Its actually an a left handed bow I thought the same thing. Its a right handed bow because of where you knock the arrows. The arrow resting place is on the left side of the bow it would be opposite if it was a lefty.

Yes! I'm left handed and love mine. It is not designed for any particular "handedness." &#128516;

It is designed for right handed shooters but they do have a model for lefties. It is called the Sport Left and is a made a little different from the RS-7. I would suggest you look at the Blackrapid.com website.

Yes works great with right or left handed shooters. I am left handed and my wife is right handed. We both use this quiver!

Everyone has given you the wrong answer so far. Actually, not wrong, just incomplete. Part everyone got correct so far: With a right handed bow you pull the string with you right hand. Other part: to decide which hand you want to pull the string with you need to find out which is your dominant eye. Most people (about 2/3) are right eye dominant. There are some people who are left eye dominant but right handed. Some of these people choose to shoot right handed but many archery coaches recommend that if you are left eye dominant then you should shoot left handed because your aim is more important than your arm strength.

There should be specifications whether each bow is right or left handed. If not I would assume right

"Handedness" in the industry is done off of eye dominance, not hand dominance. What this means, is that a right-handed bow would have the riser held with your left, and drawn with your right.

Yes it is a right handed bow, Martin makes both right and left handed versions. The two reviewers were most likely sent the wrong product by either miss labeled product or by human error. If this happens just contact the seller and have them exchange it. Hope this helps and happy shooting!

The short answer is yes. But the truth is that this fletching tool will work equally well for a left-handed shooter. This fletching tool is designed to fletch arrows with a right-helical pattern. The archer's dominant hand is irrelevant. Many archers who hunt prefer a right-helical jig because it causes their screw-in broadhead to tighten into the arrow shaft when the arrow hits the animal. Likewise, you can see a similar effect with your field tips when target shooting. A left-helical fletching pattern would tend to cause your tips to loosen on impact. There is no need to change fletching direction based only on the dominant hand of the shooter.

I am right handed and this bow works great. I hold the bow with my left hand and draw the string with right hand.

It is a right handed bow. Archery companies have to produce a mirrored version for a lefty and this amazon model is not for lefties.

No. I bought this particular bow for my right-handed daughter. But, I ended up purchasing a recurve from the same manufacturer for my left-handed daughter. The recurve can be used rt or lt handed.

I'm right handed, but I sorta tested it for you and it seemed very flexible. It is definitely made for right handed people but I think you could easily use it left handed due to it's flexibility. Hope that helps.
