Given you had enough time to develop your opposite side swing. Asking because DJ here looks like he's got the clubhead going pretty fast lefty.

Depends on your natural athletic ability I suppose. I played baseball right handed but could easily switch hit. I have lots of speed from my left side but not much control it seems.

I've always been able to swing pretty fast from both sides. It's obviously less coordinated right now, but it's not slow.

There is a good 10mph difference with me for the driver. I'm not as flexible on that side in the backswing. I did switch hit in baseball and softball though.

Given time to develop my swing, they'd probably be close. I can't imagine why they wouldn't be.
