Does anyone have a picture of Lou Duran? ;) :)

No one could ever call Lou Duran a "lefty" - literally or politically!

I was going to ask for a posting of you but I figured asking for Lou would be a lot funnier considering his bent :)

I get it, you are mad at the world because you are an adult caddie and few people take you seriously.

Excellent spellers usually lack any vision or common sense.

I know plenty of courses that are in the red, and they are killing it.

Like Chris F above, and Johnny Miller (strong arm on top!) I too am a lefty - who plays golf right-handed.

Here's my fake I.D. photo ;) for the lefty club:

I'm right handed, but grew up playing hockey left handed (IE Canadian adage of holding the stick "strong hand high") and carried over to other "stick" sports like Lacrosse. My first golf club was lefty, but when it came time for my first full set, they were right handed.

I can make solid contact with a left handed club now, but I turn into a 25 handicap with a wicket slice  :)

I think we should all have to play with the ratty leftover lefty rental set from 1965 in the back of the shed.....

Yes Jim, I am a lefty.  No one is brave enough to get near my swing to take a picture.

Cheers, Mike

Couldnt find a pic of me at a golf course playing but did find one when I was competing in the national long drive champs.

Tried playing right handed to start out with my fathers old clubs but it wasnt that great. I can still hit the ball right handed though. It can be a mission finding good equipment particularly in this part of the world.

How many of the lefties on here are fully left handed? ie they write or throw a ball with their left hand also. I do these with my right hand.

Here's a chip shot in progress by Michael Whitaker at Formby Golf Club back in 2007. Somewhere around the 11th or 12th hole I believe.



I wish I could find the photo someone took on that same trip of myself, Sean Walsh and Andrew Mitchell playing a Buda match at Alwoodley. A lefty three-ball with competitors from Australia, Yorkshire and South Carolina none of whom had met prior to that week. Amazing.

I'm a true lefty that plays lefty, yeah. I had the great pleasure of playing Rustic in an all-southpaw foursome a couple of years ago with Lynn Shackelford and Davids Kelly and Moriarty. That was a first, though Colton seems keen to repeat the feat.

Here's a photo of me fighting one out of the D.A.--apologize for the external link but I am feeling lazy today.

Along with Mike Young, Bobby Weed is another golf architect who plays left-handed. I'd be curious if there are more...

Add me to the list of "amphibious" along with Chris and Eric.  Natural lefty, playing from the right side. 

I'm guessing we might be allowed to participate but forced to play from the left side.  Pair us up=never finish!

Another shot of lefty Cirba:



and here's an occasional GCA-er, Tony Petersen, a lefty (notice glove on right hand):


Me?  I'm another natural lefty who plays golf right-handed. My left-handed mom plays right-handed, but putts left-handed.

I'm real proud of that aggressive, choked-off follow-through.   ::)

Anyone have any use for hitting the punch shot with the driver from the tee?    ::) :P :-[ :-\ ;D
