Right handed? Left handed? Maybe both?

I have a lot of things that I do left handed and a lot of things I do right handed. I throw left and bat left. I throw a ball with my left hand yet I fling a frisbee with my right. I play guitar and shoot bows and guns right handed. I also shoot pool right handed. I always had trouble trying to shoot a jump shot using the dart throwing method. Then one day I thought, "hey maybe since I throw darts left handed I should try it left handed." Wouldn't you know that it made all the difference in the world. I also had a lot of trouble with the mechanical bridge, and then one day I decided to try it left handed and that worked a lot better too. Anybody else find they have to switch hands between a traditional pool stroke and an overhand jump shot or using the mechanical bridge? I guess it does make sense for somebody like me since we are talking about different motions here.
 
I play pool lefty but I couldnt do anything else on the planet lefty. I even have to use my right hand when I use the bridge! Ive tried doing a dart stroke righty but I cant make a bridge with my left hand......
 
leftys have beautiful strokes, that's for sure.

i'm pretty much just like you in doing stuff with multiple hands.

wierd i guess.
 
I write with my right hand, when it will work properly. Otherwise, I write (much more slowly) with my left hand.

I pitch (baseball) with my left hand, pass (football) with my right.

I eat with either hand, depending on the space I'm confined to, what I'm eating, and what mood I'm in.

I play pool right-handed, but when I need to shoot left, I do. I have to really focus on my shot, though.

I type with both hands. :nanner:
 
I knew a guy named Lefty who was right handed. I always assumed he was left handed until I played pool with him one day and he was hitting the balls right handed. He told me when he was a kid he was having trouble hitting the baseball on the sandlot and his Dad told him to bat left handed. From then on when he would come to bat all the kids would shout "lefty" and that became his name. The only thing he does left handed is hit a baseball and he is around 80 years old so I doubt that he is hitting many baseballs any more.

Could be the only guy in the world named Lefty who is right handed.
 
ya, i grew up playing hockey right handed (left hand on top) and so when I switched to pool shooting left came very natural (if you think about it shooting right in hockey and left in pool is the same hand position).
 
I'm mostly a natural righty, I play pool right handed, I write and throw a ball right handed.

But as crazy as this sounds I'm almost unable to use a phone with my right hand! It just feels so weird and uncomfortable. I also bat in baseball both righty and lefty but I can actually hit a ball further as a lefty. I can play pool left handed but not too well.
 
im right handed but some things i do like a lefty i ride the skate goofy, write text messages on my phone with my left hand and piss with my left hand :D oh and i can play basic short range shoots on a pool table with my left
