Switch Bow Back To Right-Handed?
Not sure what happened but I was messing around with a torch and suddenly I'm using the bow left-handed all the time. I'm right-handed so it's maddening lol. any help?

I had this happen to me as well. I found if I dropped it on the ground then picked it up I started using it in my right hand again. Exiting out and reloading a save might solve it to, a lot of the glitches seem to work this way. I also saw a reply that mentioned waiting 3 in game days once you had dropped the item, I guess it has something to do with how the merchants reset inventory every 3 days. It seems odd advice but I have seen it posted as a step in work arounds for several issues people have had in the game.
oh cmon, we all know what your doing with the entire full 4 volumes of the lusty argonian maid with your right hand, and its amazing you can even do it with a bow in your hand.

theres an image you wont soon get out of your head. your welcome.

I saw that happen in a video The Lazy Peon put out. I guess he reloaded or it fixed itself as I only saw it a few times. Pretty funny looking it is odd that you can equip a shield as the same time you are holding a bow or a two handed weapon. The shield doesn't seem to give any actual benefit unless you are holding a one handed weapon as far armor class, it does give the enchant benefit though.

oh yeah it was screwing around with the torch that caused this. Then there was this weird thing with the shield stuck to the side of the bow. Guess I'll try dropping and picking up back up again lol

Dropping and picking up again didn't help, even equipping a different bow it was left-handed. This is driving me nuts.
Has anyone found a solution to this issue? I have the same problem!

Yeah I'm at a loss I got so annoyed that I quit playing. I was thinking about reinstalling the entire game but if it's in your save data that won't help.
