Advice: Switching to left handed.
Posted on 5/28/21 at 8:59 am

I've hit right as long as I've played but always fit a weak fade/slice. Especially with driver and woods. Tried all the fixes (stronger grip, stance, draw settings, etc.).
I'm left hand and left eye dominant and thinking about switching to hitting from the left side. Anybody make the switch before?
Definitely going to rent/borrow clubs before plunging in and buying some.

If you're left handed then your control arm is your left in a right handed swing. Your eye dominance has very little to do with it.
You're going to suck worse switching to left handed.

I think it's Soly from NLU that switched and he seems to be getting the hang of it.
So one person. One has successfully switched sides. The odds are not in your favor.

Planning on it. Just haven't had the time.

Getting fit doesn't do shite if you wipe across the ball every time. You're still going to wipe across it and stink

Agreed. Just not ruling anything out.

Switching sides seems extreme for a club path issue. Take a lesson and get your swing on video

I found like a $70 used left handed TaylorMade spider putter and tried it for half a season. It didn’t work.

Buy some pings

Practice with a water bottle just behind and outside of your ball. If you’re still missing right, strengthen your grip a little. Switching to left handed sounds miserable and would take forever.

So to fix your fade you're going to start standing on the wrong side of the ball?

turns into a draw when he fades it from the opposite side...

Totally agree

In a perfect world, your dominant hand should be your lead hand.
