Two-handed weapons and bows can be used in a unique way that can help economize your hotkeys. However, if a hotkeyed spell is already equipped and you tap that same hotkey it will equip the same spell in your right hand. If a shield or torch is already equipped, tapping that hotkey will unequip that shield/torch. A hotkeyed shield, torch, or spell will always be equipped in the offhand. Pressing the button again will unequip that weapon if it's already equipped. A hot keyed weapon will always be equipped to the right hand.

Not much of a trick but I have found great use in the Secret Servant Lesser Power from the Dragonborn DLC. You will still have those two items hotkeyed but they won't be taking up space in your favorites menu. if you favorited two weapons, go back to the weapons menu) and unfavorite them. Then go back to those items in their respective menus (i.e. Start by selecting two hotkeys from your favorites menu.cuz two is all we get *ahem*. Invisi-whaaat?! Don't let the title distract you.
