I'm left handed hitter and I can hook and slice with the best.Played once on a Par 3 course,they refunded my money and asked me not to come back.I try but I am not very good at it. Back in the day I could knock it a mile but here lately I spend more time looking for my balls in the rough than I do hitting it for any real distance. You should give it a try. All the cool kids are doing it.
