Beginning to play golf, should I go left or right handed?
I am going to begin to play golf soon, currently I have been taking swings in the backyard trying to figure out if I should go left or right handed so that I can go buy a set of clubs. I write with my left hand. So anyway, Left side golf swing: I have more power in my arms due to baseball, it is not as comfortable standing or griping the club as on the right side, I can make good contact with the ball and it goes straight, at least for 10 feet. Right side golf swing: Feels more natural, easier to grip I think due to me playing tennis (backhand in tennis is the same type of grip for a righty golf player) and I play hockey right handed. Same results as left side swing, good contact, goes straight like at least 10 feet (I don’t have much room in my backyard). I went to a golf shop today and the guy there watched me take a couple shots left and right handed and was also unsure which side I should play, he just said to just keep trying and see what feels good. Can anyone help me out?
