Anything that requires as much strength as possible (especially hand strength) I do right handed and anything that requires as much skill as possible I do left handed.

I'm the same way, sorta.

Lefty: Write, eat, soldering iron, etc

Righty: throw, kick, golf

My girlfriend noticed something when I was making a sandwich the other day. Apparently, I chopped up a tomato and an onion with my right hand, but I spread mayo on the bread with my left. Also, I use a mouse with my right hand, which seems like is should be a left handed, more precise move. What a weirdo!

Hey I never thought about it but me too. :-D

Edit: But on my laptop I use my left hand. That makes no sense.

Anything with 1 hand I am righty, anything with 2 hands (hockey, baseball, golf) I'm lefty. Don't know why just am. I am decent at switch hitting though and when fooling around am not MUCH WORSE righty than lefty at golf.

I used to always hustle people when they wanted to play beer pong 1 on 1. I'd say let's do left hand and right hand like theyre two seperate people. Never lost. Maybe I should try the same with golf "Lefty drive, Righty approach, Lefty chip onto green, putt righty" If it were only that easy....

      Dr. Raymond Prior and Block vs. Random Practice (The Spin Axis Podcast)

      By iacas · Posted

      It may not have been block practice, though, is one of the main points here. You may have been serving and from the same place, but you were likely trying to do slightly different things. It seems that would only be blocked practice if you were trying to hit the same exact ball hit to you to the same exact place in the far court. I'm not sure that's as random as if the ball that you're given to hit is at different places, too, but again…

      I played tennis in college. I thought block practice was great for serves because you were starting the point and  you could easily adjust where you wanted to place the ball based off the same motion. I equate those to tee balls. I despised block practice for groundstrokes once you reached a certain level and your fundamentals were good. To me, hitting a 100 crosscourt backhands in a row was silly because I would never do that in a match. I needed to randomize it by hitting some deep, some angled, all with different speeds and spins. I share that same thought about iron play. Because we seldom hit the same approach shots hole after hole, I prefer to practice irons randomly.
