I golf right and shoot right in hockey because I got my brother's hand me downs ( back when sticks didn't break every game). I play guitar right handed for a similar reason.
Hockey handedness doesn't always correlate with regular handedness. I always heard shooting left was more prevalent in Canada for some reason. One of the most interesting things about the sport.
It's true. There's a differance between strong top hand vs strong bottom hand. We're taught strong bottom here in Canada and you get strong top in the US. I just got the stick my brother had.
Interestingly I've been told that batting follows the dominant eye more than handedness. It especially important for those with larger noses ๐. The dominant eye is favored to get the more square view. You can spot those who've been tutored in batting from a young age because they twist their head like an owl to get two eye square on view.
Guitar seems like something that could be have beem standardized either way as it requires fine motor skills for both hands.
I just started playing bass guitar this year and getting my left hand to work the strings is far harder than rhythm with the right.
I was going to learn banjo left-handed later in life and was urged not to. It would greatly limit the ability to swap and try out other instruments. I've never been able to finger pick because my right hand just doesn't have that kind of dexterity despite years of trying/training.
