From what I read on google, the results of people in our situation are all over the board, just like in this thread. I have not been to the range but I feel like I should have another 40 to 50 yards off the tee swinging lefty, but I might struggle with control. If I don't go down the lefty route at least I will have a few lefty clubs in the bag for hitting around trees and such in the rough.
I think that the control was a large part of it for me. Having my left arm as my lead arm guiding the swing felt better and just made more sense, especially compared to my largely useless right arm.
Interesting story. Also, what do you keep putting using pics of yourself in the avatar with holes in your face/head?
No, but if you need some strange going oppo is a way to do it.
Im going for the sympathy vote……just letting everyone know that getting old isn’t for the feint of heart…
Man, that's the truth!
Golf is a difficult game for the masses because it is a left-sided game played by right sided dominant people. The most successful golfers were usually “ambidextrous” players…In golf the most important physical asset is to be “target eyed” dominant….left eye if you right handed, right eye if your left handed. Golf is a game of “pulling” the cliub through impact……right sided dominant folks have the tendency to “throw the club” thru the impact area and “throwing the club” (over the top swings) leads to every malady the golfer can suffer in a golf swing. Personally, I can attest to the significant slide in my golf skills back 12 years ago when I threw a clot and lost my vision in my right eye. Distances, depth perceptions (side hill and down hill lies, especially) are particularly vexing to me now.
