I am.

I'm left handed in every other way but because I'm right eye dominant I shoot, golf, swing a baseball bat etc all right handed.

All works quite well except shooting a handgun. I want to hold it with my left hand but sight with my right eye......which is not good.


I went to an elementary school where our teachers were nuns, and they tried until the 3rd grade to "make" me right handed. Apparantly they felt it put me at a disadvantage being a lefty.

In boxing I use both hands but mostly the right.
And in football or kick boxing I use both legs to kick, but the left is stronger.
I learned to box as right handed because I had no difficulty and the teacher was right-handed and felt he could not teach well left-haders techiniques. As a result, I have a softer right punch but a really frightening powerful and fast left hand swing and jab. People who have boxed with me were at first scared because they though "My God, if this is what he does with his left hand, I don't want to know what will happen when he shoots with the right one " :lol:, but in fact the right hand was softer. After some years of boxing I perfected the technique as left handed and usually switched frequently to confuse the oponent.
