Lefty or righty? ( or both?)

[yamahonkawazuki]

Me, im predominatly R with some left. yet i wear my wristwatches on R. which is usually a lefty thing. computers its R handed mouse only. drawing is R setting gemstones was a left handed operation , as was running a cash register.

I'm a weird one.... my body is "left hand dominant", but my right hand is dominant.

Writing, throwing a ball, etc: right hand.

Kicking a ball, shooting a gun / bow, swing a bat / golf club, etc: left hand.

It's really funny because my brother is the exact opposite.

Speaking of shooting. . I'm right handed..  but left eye dominant. . Which is ok for scoped longarms but headache time with iron sights, also headache with handguns iron sights and really feckin confusing with a red dot scope!  ... never tested laser sights.

And for general inquiry of lefty righty. .. knife,fork and spoon use? .... I'm always fork left but spoon right?

Hmm i would pistol shoot left. with an rh ejecting weapon. bounced a couple of casings off me noggin lol til i got used to it. dont think i would eat with left tho. cause that was the hand id ahem "aim" with

That a thing with your mob too eh? .. aiming I mean... each to their own .. I couldn't follow that rule tho... soap is soap. .. and I have to use both hands for safety! ! ... Bahahaha

[yamahonkawazuki]

i know , hygiene is hygiene. its a psych thing for me there . beyond that , both hands are available.

Can't comment on shooting, but I'm right handed for everything, use fork with right hand, but also wear wristwatch on right hand. Left hand is just a useless fumbling grabber and holder, apart from playing guitar.

[yamahonkawazuki]

Hmmmmmmmm, may take janxs description ( r hand artistic, left hand precision descriptionand put it to work soon. as soon as im able to swing it, i had plans of making the adidasguy memorial fork braces, since im medically grounded for a while, time to get this going. each one will be done by hand so this will be enjoyable.

Mainly right, but I can do a few things lefty.

I use a fork predominantly in my left hand, and I can shoot nearly ambidextrously.  That has been trained, though.  Back when I used to paintball I learned it was easier/safer to shoot lefty out of the left side of cover so I learned to shoot lefty and righty interchangeably.  It's something I continued to practice when transitioning to firearms.

My left hand is capable, it has motor skills, but the reason I can't write lefty I think is just because I never practiced to.  I tend to switch it up when using tools and such, sometimes when laying down lines as well.  Occasionally I'll draw across a straight edge lefty...
