I'm righty for everything, can't use my left hand or swing lefty for shit. Last time I golfed with my lefty buddy I did take a wedge swing with one of his clubs and put the ball closer than his. But otherwise I'm not very coordinated left handed.

My grandpa could at the very least throw a baseball with both hands but was a lefty otherwise.

My mom, dad, me and my sister all lefties…no one else on either side of the families are lefties.

My dad is almost fully ambidextrous and I am definitely in that spectrum as well.

Write, throw, toss, kick lefty….bat, golf, catch righty. I never was a switch hitter but always could. Can golf left handed. Ping pong, tennis, pool…..I start out as right handed but there’s minimal drop off as a lefty.

Righty for just about everything.  Although I could switch hit very well, at least in the cage.  And I guess I type pretty well with my left hand, too :)

Was just thinking if I even use my left when driving.  I do a lot of one-hand driving, but still mostly my right.

Righty for most everything, but batted lefty in baseball and golfed lefty, maybe bc my dad was left handed and taught me that way. If I ever pick up golf again I’ve thought about trying to switch to righty and see if that helps bc I sucked.

Like Ironman92, I’m one of the ones who threw left but batted right. We had a thread about this some time ago. There is another Huddler who does that, too. I’ll try to find that thread.

The thread I was looking for is “How Do You Shave?”

The lefty righty talk starts on page 2 more toward the bottom.

cat_lover was the other bat right throw left Huddler.
