I bought my son the Diamond Core a couple years ago.
Man I love that bow!
He shoots it a lot and has done well with it

He has almost outgrown it and when he gets another, I will be keeping it!

Don\'t know anything about the bow, but I did want to tell you that you aren\'t weird! There are multiple people on the forum who are making the switch from right handed to left handed. Here is a thread they have going, might want to check it out: http://www.backtrakoutdoors.com//viewtopic.php?f=15&t=2722

I feel diamond makes some good bows, especially for the price.
how old was your son when he got his bow ?

 

[elky McElkerson]

Diamond is a Bowtech product right?

is this bow a single cam?

 

[cnelk]

Yes, DIAMOND is a BowTech product

I got him that bow 2 years ago - he was 17

He is MUCH bigger now!

I shot a Diamond Marquis for a number of years. Killed a pile of critters with it. Single cam, very easy tuning and the easiest 70# I\'ve ever pulled. Sweet bow!

I would object and say the person that thread is referring to is very weird. :lol:

iccyman ..
just a question why ?

just a question why ?

The link that he posted was a thread about me, so I was just calling myself weird!
(I wasn\'t calling you weird and I am sorry if it came off that way!)


I am currently going through the same transition that you are.
When I first started bow hunting I went with a right hand bow, but I am left eye dominant.
So after two seasons I decided to bite the bullet and go with a lefty bow.

I was nervous at first, but I am so glad I did it. Using the proper eye makes such a difference.
You will really like your change :up thumb:



Good luck!

The only thing I would mention about the infinite edge is it won\'t be nearly as efficient or more than likely feel as good as a bow that is less adjustable. If a person is still growing, It would be hard to beat that bow. For someone who is finished growing there are plenty of options in the E price range that will give you the same performance.

I really appreciate everyone\'s input ..
Thank you

How old are you monument? I understand what your situation is. I switched from righty to lefty myself.

Im 43 I have researched some info on the subject and have found its not all that unique.

 

[elky McElkerson]

you shoot a right bow lefty?

how does that work? just thinking out-loud, the biggest hurdle would be the sight? you\'re using a right handy sight, or did you retrofit a lefty sight.

dang, my mind is blown.

OK monument. The reason I asked is the infinite Edge is designed to fit a growing Archer. You can purchase a bow that is more specific to your DL. The reason I say that is the huge adjustability comes at a cost and that is efficiency. A bow like the Hoyt Charger would probably be 20-30 fps faster at your DL than what the Infinite Edge. I am not trying to crap on your choice just trying to help inform. Regardless....enjoy your new bow.

Yes I shoot a right handed bow left handed. I use a right hand sight and normal rig for a righty , I just shoot from the left side
it actually makes a lot of sense as the string isn\'t near my arm and everything is aligned on the outside rather than crossing over if you know what I mean.

I understand what your saying and I appreciate the help. the reason I got the bow was the deal . I got a great deal on it and because it is so adjustable I thought in a year or two my daughter could grow into it . Until then I can make great use of the bow.
I also have a diamond triumph but it is an older model from 05 and is why I was looking for something newer . the triumph is a single cam and the edge is a dual .

Sounds like you have a good plan. Good luck with your new bow.
