Harry, "Only in Canada!"   I always "blame" my lefty-ness on my Canadian mom.  :-)  Actually I wear my Canadian background very proudly.    What is the percentage of lefty golfers there?  Seems like I remember hearing over 20%.  Is that correct?    I definitely notice more and more young l

Andy, that's quite the leftie / rightie lineup in your family .. thanks for sharing.   A couple of year ago my 2 sons went to the golf course with 6 of their friends. They had two foursomes.  Of the 8 players, only my youngest son Dwight golfed RH.   Thanks Harry S www.Golf54.com -Or

Jen and Royce As a data point my Father was a lefty that when he was in grade school (about 1911 or so) was forced to switch to RH for penmanship, which was common then. He was a true switch hitter in baseball and used a shovel or axe either way. When he took up golf, he discovered that h

I am not a natural left at anything athletic but I've always wondered if I could play left handed.  I played basketball in university and shot both ways (although my left hand jump shot was only good from about 7 feet) and I can throw a football with both hands.  Soccer I can kick equally with
