I was born left handed but, thanks to my first grade teacher Miss James who insisted I hold the pencil in my right hand, I write and perform all my fine motor skills right handed while remaining a left handed bowler, pitcher, batter etc. I am ambidextrous at such things as hammering a nail.

Right, I shot left too.
When I was in Sign School there was one guy that was left handed. From what I understood learning to letter was tough for left handed since you were working over the
letter you just painted.

Anything non related to a computer mouse I do with my left hand. Kind of weird actually when I think about it! lol To think since I'm left handed, I would use my left hand to use the mouse?

Right-handed except for swinging, like batting, golfing, or shoveling. I did teach myself to switch-hit in grade school, which paid off in high school. I can eat left handed well enough to get by. And I taught myself to rope left-handed. It seems like every time I do a roping clinic, there is someone who is left-handed or can't transpose seeing me rope right-handed and them learning to swing a rope right handed. They can usually copy if I swing left-handed for some reason.

Interesting. I am left-handed and taught a couple 'normals' to play guitar. They all went cross-eyed until I pointed out its like looking in a mirror when I'd show them something. Then, easy sailing....

I write left handed but I do almost everything else right handed. Hammering and squeegeeing either hand is fine. I also kick left footed.

Right hand dominate. I crushed my right hand middle of my junior in high school. The rest of High School I pretty much was left handed. I can still write pretty good with my left hand. I could write the ABC's with both hands at the same time. Start from A on my left hand and Z on the right hand and meet in the middle. Was a great party trick in college. Won a lot of Beer that way. Two of my boys are righty's and one is a lefty. Which makes me happy. Gives me a reason to buy left handed golf clubs when he is older. Just to mess around with.

I'm a lefty but do most other things right handed. I can shoot a pistol either hand with the same accuracy but can only shoot a rifle or long gun left handed. I bowl, catch, bat with my right hand. I'm ALMOST ambidextrous. It's quite fun!
