I'm so glad I found this group! I've only been playing for a short time, but because of a right shoulder injury years ago, I tried throwing LHBH and found I was MUCH better that way even though I can't do anything else left-handed. Oddly, I have now added RHFH to my throws.

almost forgot...why are we called cheaters? because of the multiple shots we have in our arsenal?

I'm one of the only lefty's I know, and I love it! Love the fact that right handed throwers bitch and moan on every lefty hole they encounter, but say nothing about the fact that 90% of the courses out there are right hand friendly.
I average a 44 when I throw, am the Captain of a Disc Golf team, and have the respect of my fellow rippers.
I have a question for you fellow lefty's...do you find yourself taking riskier shots because of the lines that aren't there? EG..having to throw through trees, over water hazards etc? I have found that I have to go over or around more things...anhyzer,anhyzer,anhyzer

im one of the only leftys in my area and they love giving me a hard time. I dont flick that well so i am learning to throw righty as well.

Would a right handed sidearm player be considered a lefty on the playing field? Or maybe a lefty wanna be?

It is funny being called a cheater when most holes are righty friendly. I get called a cheater on righty holes now because of my forehand. Rightys are just jealous!

I'm one of the only left handed people throwing on our course- and I'm still learning. I AM finding unique ways of approaching some shots- last week I decided to skip the usual path through the trees off of the t-pad on one of our holes and come off the pad hard left to throw over the bridge! Great up!!!

Reading Spiderwomans comment below "FREELY".

Righty's always seem to point out when A hole has a bias in favor of a lefty. Most of the course here favor a RHBH thrower by just a little , so they really couldn't call me a lefty cheater.

I am actually a righty, but I go both ways... hmm... having a southpaw drive has gotten me out of many a tight spot.
