Left Handed Golfers Should Play To Their Strengths And Not Play Right Handed

There are many people who play golf these days as there are many different people who play the game but may not have in the past. These days golf is one of the mainstream sports thanks to many younger and British players performing well in the game and relaxed rules for many golf clubs which may have been a bit more �exclusive� in the past.

Many left handed golfers may see the majority of golf club sets available at sports shops that are right handed and choose to learn to play golf right handed. This can be a big mistake for left handed people and to prove this there are many famous left handed golfers such as Phil Mickleson, Tiger Woods’ bitter rival.

The limited choice of left handed clubs can be a downside to being a lefty but if you are only shopping at your local general sports store then you are not going to benefit from a wide range of choice and may end up having to buy a set of left handed clubs which may not feel right or comfortable. It is much better to visit a dedicated golf shop or club shop at your local golf course as there’ll be a much more varied choice for left handed golfers.

Another possible option is for golfers to visit golf discount warehouses, these stores are fairly prevalent and stock either end of line clubs that have been replaced with new models as well as some second hand clubs which may be worth buying if you are looking for some clubs on a budget.

It may sound strange but getting golf tuition from a left handed professional can help you get a better idea and visual impression of how you should swing and what your stance should be like. Some right handed professionals may be able to show you all the stances and shot types in their native right hand style but may not be able to accurately recreate the stance and motion as a left handed person.

As well as struggling to learn right handed golf and it being a bit more of an effort to get the right clubs for you you’ll also be playing against your natural strengths with your right hand powering the swing of your club you won’t get as much power as you would by swinging with your stronger left hand putting the power behind your shots
