Left handed.

They say that what really matters is to check which eye you close and leave open when your aimming (like with a rifle). If you close your right eye and aim with your left eye you're a left handed, and vice versa.

Lefty for most things, but golf/batting right handed. When I was little, teachers tried to make us "inbred left handed menaces to society" write with our right hands....:mad:

Do you lay on your left arm for a while so it goes numb and you can pretend it's someone else?

ahem ...

I'm completely right handed, like every other normal person ;)

Having said that, I did everything left handed when I broke my right wrist when I was a kid ... made me a mroe complete basketball player and helped me go on to play A grade ... I still couldn't write with my left hand though ...

Im right handed but I always use my left eye to aim a gun.

Strewth JPM you looking for a witch hunt to get rid off all us lefties or something?
Were not all Freaks you know :P

but just for the record I have no problems with any of the controls on my bike.
However I appear to suffer from an incredible lack of abillity, which I put down to having a left handed Uncle.

Yes. What's your point?

And on the aiming a rifle point above, I want to say that yes I aim with my left eye.

I also pull the trigger with my left index finger. This actually makes bolt action rifles a complete and utter pain, unless they had been set up especially for a left hander. Otherwise one has to reach up and over the barrel to work the bolt. Makes it almost impossible to stop spent cartridges flying off into the bush, which is no good if you're doing your own reloads.

I've seen plenty of people shooting rifles as a right hander would but aiming with their left eye. And left handers getting sprayed with hot empty cases because the ejection port of the rifle is still on the right hand side.

Which is expecially funny when using the F88 Steyr and they don't realise that the second trigger pressure is actually for automatic fire!!

:lol:

Oh how we laughed ....

Errr ... no point ...

Bet my afternoon was more fun than yours ;)

Ditto for me, born left handed, teachers changed all of that. They say that the practice of getting kids to change from left to right handed can have psychological implications later in life.

I DON'T SEE IT HAS EVER AFFECTED ME - AWROIT? :flame: ;)

If your right handed how do you find using the clutch.............:frog:
