Wow! Putting in one thing, but I can't conceive of taking a whack at a golf ball with my Titleist 975D driver with my left hand low. I shudder to think of the consequences.

Mag,

We used to have a golfer at our club that also played cross handed. His story was that his brother was coming into town and pestering him to play golf, he had never touched a club. So he went to a driving range, with no clue what to do, and just started swinging that way.

He was also very good, accurate and long. He had a very slow smooth swing, and a huge turn. He seldom used metals off the tee, but could pound his 3 iron about 240.

I also gave it a try on the range, it was painful, and that was the best part.

John
