Saying Hello and Switching from Lefty to Righty?


Tim Rogers

Recommended Posts

New to the forum.  I am currently a left handed golfer but thinking about switching to right hand.  Hoping to find out if others have ever done that.

Welcome to TST @Tim Rogers.   We're glad you've joined.    I grew up with a guy that started golfing left handed, batted left handed but did everything else right handed.   After several years he changed to a right handed golfer because clubs were so much easier to find.   I have no idea how that is working for him though.

Welcome to TST. 
Although basketball cannot be compared to golf, I have made the switch from right-handed to primarily left-handed play as a point guard.

It took around six months of intensive training to be comfortable with dribbling and shooting with my left hand.
Besides the training, consciously switching to the left hand for my daily tasks like eating helped a lot as well.

    • You might want to try a can of Bar Keepers Friend. Yes, it is abrasive, so just wet a sponge and dab it on. It has oxalic acid (no bleach like "Comet" kitchen cleanser), and it works wonders on stainless steel and other metals. Try it on a small area first to see what happens.
    • Fair   My uneducated thought: the big miss is the penalty area. If you want to optimize score, missing into the bunker (likely 5) is better than missing right into the penalty (possible 6). With that, your strategy seems sound and if you hit a committed shot, you get a bunker 5% of the time, take your medicine and hopefully get a putt for par but accept bogey. You may find yourself in a penalty situation 2-3% of the time and accept the associated outcome. The vast majority of the time though you are giving yourself a good approach shot into the green. 
    • I walk 30 mins a day on my lunch break. It is not very intense (since i dont want to get sweaty in my work clothes), so just a touch above leisurely. 3 days a week I walk on the treadmill for 60 mins. I alternate the incline from 4 to 10 for a couple minutes, once every ten minutes. I lift my kettlebells nearly everyday. I have a couple complex routines. I find just 15 minutes and my heart rates is elevated
