    Just wanted to see how many of us play golf the opposite way than we write? I am a lefty that taught myself to play the game right handed. What played into this is my dad had a right handed set of clubs and I taught myself to play right handed because at the time they weren’t for sure how serious I was at playing the game. So to start I would just chip and went from there. Didn’t get my first set until my 8th grade graduation. Needless to say it was a cheap set but I enjoyed them. Also back in the 80’s left handed clubs were hard to come by.

    I write and played baseball left handed and guys were amazed I played golf right handed. The funny part is I couldn’t hit a baseball worth a lick batting right handed. Just thought to see how many changed to the opposite side.

    I am the opposite, I am RH but play golf LH. I played baseball righty growing up, but batted lefty. Weird, I know.

    Growing up playing hockey - shot left handed, playing baseball - bat left handed. Golf - my Dad gave my brother and I his old clubs which were right handed. I got the evens and my brother got the odds. I just had to figure it out or not play. Still most comfortable hitting 4,6 and 8 irons.
