Practice. Focus on proper form. I shoot left handed occasionally for fun. Lighter weight to start will help ease the transition...

I did it probably 5 years ago. I'm left eye dominant as well. However, that wasn't really why I switched. I have real bad astigmatism in my right eye that my contacts won't completely correct. I wanted to be able to shoot better past 20 yards. Honestly, I didn't have a problem at all drawing and shooting the bow. It just really wasn't much different to me. I have always shot guns left and right handed for fun all the way back to a BB gun when I was a little kid. I don't know if that helped or not. One thing it did take me a while getting use to was getting an arrow an loading it up with my left hand during practice. After a few sessions that went away though. I'm glad I switched and really wish I had sooner I guess.

My middle daughter is left eye dominant and it took her about three weeks of roughly every other day practice to get comfortable with shooting her bow lefty. For adults it can take a little longer as we are more set in our ways. Being left eye dominant you will definately see an improvement in accuracy by going lefty.
