In other sports like hockey or baseball, you will find that you need to either shoot or bat left handed or right handed. The same applies in the game of golf. Just like in baseball, a switch hitter is someone who can do both, there are some people who will feel comfortable golfing left or right handed. In order to improve your game, most golfers will only use one way and improve their game that way. The main thing to remember is that many of the golf swing tips available in magazines or online guides will be able to be applied to any type of golfer.
