Sitting in a tree right now that favors some great weak side shots. I am not a platform guy. I use steps and brackets only. The issue at least for me is the draw. Once drawn i have no issues on the weak side. So i solved the problem. Draw on strong side and sweep over my bridge to the weak side. Very easy to do. Anyone else doing this ?
 
seems like a lot of movement. My concern would be catching the tether while drawn or hitting an above limb and sending the arrow up to the sky. having not tried this Im skeptical.
 
Im able to be behind the tree to draw in this case. No lower body movement at all. Heck can't be more movement than trying to do a360 on a little platform to get into position.
 
I cranked my draw weight down to 55 lbs and can pretty much draw and shoot from any position shot two deer last Friday. The second was sniffing the bloody arrow when I shot. Shot one from the strong side and one from the weak side.
 
@EricS you are right. Just tried weak side draw, no issue. This is my first season with new bow, a realmX. Huge difference compared to my 14 year old, Old Glory. Wow
