I am right handed and shoot left. The only time I tried to flex a stick right handed I snapped it. Imagine how hard I would shoot if i shot right. I would have stone hands though.
From what I understand, it comes down to two things:
1 What sport you learned first.
2 Which hand your "teacher" is.
Most Americans learn to play swing a baseball bat first. That translates to having your dominate hand closer to the end of bat/blade.
I'm right handed, shoot left, bat left and golf left. What's wrong with me?
I'm right handed and I shoot righty. It blew me away when I found out I was in the minority. Stickhandling is one of my strengths to boot, go figure.
Slashing is my strength so the bottom dominant hand thing might be true for me. Stickhandling and shooting are weaknesses. Tripping and hooking are okay.
Your catching hand is your dominant hand? That's odd. I'd have assumed if you're a lefty, you caught right. Must make baseball awkward (I'm envisioning you catching and then taking the glove off so you can throw with the same hand).
I'm right-handed and shoot right but when I play goal I shoot left. But in baseball terms my left hand is my catching hand.
I'm right handed, shoot left, bat left and golf left. What's wrong with me?
Im right handed,
I shoot left in hockey, in golf, i shoot right.
I dont get it. Never have. Ive always done what feels natural.
I had no idea people played with their dominant hand NOT at the bottom of the stick whenever you hold it to me it also relates to how you shift your weight on and off the stick and it just seems like it would be really weird to do that on your offside
