Who is a left handed brewer?

[EllisTX]

Damn. I'm working my ass off mastering this hobby right handed. You're all doing it backwards! +10 points for difficulty

 

[Dan]

Write with my left just about everythinig else right handed. When I have to write on dry erase boards, start at the end and go backwards or my hand wipes off what I write.

 

[bob1852]

Lefty here...

 

[naga77777]

Checking in.

 

[sudsmcgee]

Ambidextrous but mostly lefty.

 

[ahaley]

I think we can all agree on our lefty penmanship being not the best, but we are in our right mind always!

 

[KayaBrew]

I'm in. 41 years as a lefty....

 

[ReverseApacheMaster]

Left Hand Brewing Co.

 

[ahaley]

Our ranks grow, we will overthrow the right handed tyrants! Or make them use their left hands for a few days at least...

Sometimes you have to switch it up or you'll get tennis elbow in your right arm.

I grew up writing and doing most activities left handed. In School though, they typically only had right handed equipment (golf clubs, baseball mitts, etc.) so I suck equally with either hand in most sports. Interestingly enough, when I started working as an electrician, my tool bags were set up with all my side tools on the right and I didn't even think to switch them until a few years after I'd become used to using my right hand for them.

 

[Sheldon]

Yup, I'm one too

 

[Hulud]

Lefty checking in but I dunno if it really makes any difference for me. I mean as we all probably did I learned to do most things right handed. I haven't seen anyone else brew so I could be doing it right handed for all I know

 

[Hulud]

eat both which is apparently a big deal

Eat both?

I have my fork in the left hand and knife in right when cutting. And don't change when eating. Apparently you are supposed to switch when eating from what I have been told.....

 

[Brewshock]

I am lefty also! I'll have to work that into a name of a beer.

Interesting. I switch, and always thought I was being uncouth.

 

[Erroneous]

Another lefty here. Couple things I can do with my right or both but mainly a lefty. I had a teacher in high school that would go on about how lefties and ambis tend to have higher math skills. Seeing how many brewers are into science and engineering it makes sense, though this is hardly a random study.

I think the "proper" etiquette is to use fork in left, knife in right, and when done cutting put the knife down. Which is the reason you are supposed to switch. This is all designed for right handed feasters as its easier to cut right handed than left. Left handed should be reverse.

Then again, I'm a righty, what do I know...

 

[Homercidal]

I almost always cut with m y right which is usually the hand I use for my fork after cutting, but sometimes I just shove it in my mouth with my left hand. Depends on how hungry I am.

I can write better with my right hand backwards, than I can with my left hand forwards, and about twice as fast!

 

[bad67z]

Ambidextrous here and truly divided. I throw, kick, eat with my left, I write, bat, weld, golf, shoot guns and hoops with my right.

YUP!! People think it's weird when I don't switch, but it's so convenient! It's fun to watch the righties fumble around when eating a steak.

I'm also an accountant so I can write while adding things up on my ten-key. The others in the office look at me with disdain. Lefties are more efficient!!!!

 

[dstranger99]

I'm a left too......So is Obama.........(Not that I wanna start anything).............

I know it's Wikipedia, so take it with a grain of salt, but thought this was interesting:

That is proper but I just don't move to my right since I'm left handed lol

 

[Domminigan]

Another lefty checking in.

 

[Schecter]

Lefty.

We are, of course, the only ones in our right mind!

 

[DangerRoss]

This guy is a lefty!

Bring enough hombrew to the party and people stop noticing how I use the silverware.

 

[CreamyGoodness]

I'm a big lefty, but I do everything with my right hand.

 

[knotquiteawake]

Well, I'm ambidex.. I write lefthanded.. but do everything else right handed. I'm right eye dominant.. etc.. but.. I can do just about everything pretty well lefty. I have a son that can't do ANYTHING right handed.

Oh thank God, I thought I was the only one!
Only write lefty but everything else is right.
