Lefties vs. Righties - Page 2

techtre2003 · 12-13-2016, 03:48 PM

I write right handed. Sports are mostly left handed except tennis, ping-pong, and bowling (which is weird because I throw underhand with my left).
Not sure what footed I'd count as. I kick with my right but jump off my left.

I am a leftie. Do somethings right handed cause i learned from a right hander. Batting, pool, golf are right handed. I used to hate taking notes in school due to spiral notebooks.
Never really think about it till ppl say something when i write a receipt out to them.

Anyone use chopsticks with their left hand?

The only this worse than a left handed quarterback is a left footed kicker.

Tim Tebow would be on his way to the NFL Hall of Fame and his 6th straight Super Bowl if he was right handed.

Father/son memories!
Both mom and dad were lefties, my brother and I both righties.

I'm right handed but learning to switch hit was the best thing ever. I had more power right handed, but had a better average left handed.

Try to cover them all..

Write/throw right handed
Left footed
Bat left handed (can hit right too)
golf right handed

What about a bow and arrow? What hand do you use to pull the bow?

Saraste · 12-14-2016, 04:16 PM

I am both left handed and left footed. I bat and golf right handed, which is the way it should be as my power is on my left side. Growing up the early-mid 70's was interesting as nobody could teach me how to write left handed. I was on my own. Spiral notebooks, binders, and anything that leaves a "wet" residue like white out have been my nemeses ever since. I did learn how to do some things right handed like using the numbers on a keyboard.

I'm left handed, left footed, but I shoot a basketball right handed go figure.

I do, but I'm no good with them. Though I like to use them to look cool and fancy when I eat out for chinese/sushi.

jewcer2k5 · 12-17-2016, 12:31 AM

Lefty all the way.

jewcer2k5 · 12-17-2016, 12:32 AM

In related news. Phil Michelson is a righty but learned how to golf by mirroring his dad (also a righty)

I copied the claw grip he uses from a youtube lesson video. The results made getting out of bed in the morning a slightly more reasonable proposition.

I am exactly the same. Also serve volleyball right handed. I am not the best at tennis so I just switch hands to avoid hitting a back hand.

Same! Always thought it was weird that it seemed like 90% of the other skaters skated regular whereas I was one of the few that skated goofy.

I could never skate switch because regular just seemed so abnormal. I found it next to impossible to pop with my right foot.

So card collectors are over represented by left handed Republicans?

jdandns · 12-17-2016, 09:17 PM

I think left handed people (I am also one) are just more likely to answer the question as to whether they are left handed or right handed. Right handed people, figuring most people are like them, don't tend to bother with it, hence the skewed percentage in this thread.

Same as op
