Question Lefty Playing Right, Thinking of playing Left

Hi, Im a Lefty through and through apart from footy (both).

From a young age just picked up Right handed clubs and hacked around in the garden and never thought about left handed clubs.

Well after some thinking and a lot of poor rounds Im thinking about playing LEFT HANDED, I think playing the natural way will give me a more consistant swing, as at the moment my swing varies a lot.

Ive always played sports and have always had good hand, eye co-ordination, But GOLF seem's very random!!!!!!

Have anyone had the same experiance or are there any success stories of players switching????

Played for 4 good years during the summers but hover around the 100.
IS THIS WHY????? HELP

My advice would be to see a professional to have them evaluate your swing. If you hit both ways for the pro, they will tell you which way will be more beneficial to you to continue your golf addiction.

Re: Lefty Playing Right, Thinking of playing Left

I am also left handed playing right. I just recently started teaching myself to play left handed getting a old set of lefties (just so I can have that shot in the bag if I need it...flipping over a right handed wedge from the leftside).

What I discovered, is that I am getting pretty good. It feels unnatural at first, but stick with it. You might be happy you did.
