So for cross-dominant people, do you hold the catapult with your dominant hand so that you can easily line it up with your dominant eye, or is there a way of holding it with your non-dominant hand that helps line it up when aiming with the wrong eye so to speak?

What do you for archery (if you've done any archery that is).

Just the principles for the two are pretty similar

Only tried archery the once (on a hen do, as you do) and then I shot right-handed as needed the arm strength and compensated by aiming off target, but that isn't a very good solution!

Maybe I should just take the opportunity to work on shooting left-handed. At least there's no awkward bolt movement involved here.

Having tried out my brand new Stingray from Suffolk Slingshots today, shooting on the left seems to work fine and feels very natural, so no issues there. Also quite a lot of fun! :D
