This is my first message on this forum. I´m writng from a stormy cold Swedish westcost. Before I continue my story I must congratulate you for a marvellous job with this forum and thank You very much for everyones great generosity. I´m trying to contribute by spreading the word among my friends.
I have been trying to play golf for about 13 years, the last four more intense. My handicap is 16. I´m 56 years old. I play regularly on my handicap. I have been reading this forum with great interest in about 6 months and have been practising a lot of the TGM ideas. The first one was the Flat Right Wrist and the Bend Left Wrist(I´m a lefter), which felt odd in the beginning but now it is completely natural. Now I´m trying to learn the Educated hands and the Magic of the left fore arm. My question is as follows.
I was happy to start golfing from left even though I´m right handed, because I could drive (throw!!) the club with huge force by using the "wrong" side force. Now that I´ve learned that it is my left forearm that is the "drive" I find it different but really good. The big difference is that I play with more security and my slices are only a memory.
I wonder if any one has any experience to share with me. Is it worth the work to change side or are there any tips that I could use.
If you find my English a bit odd it´s because it´s Swenglish.

Hi Hansli,
Welcome to the forum...
It will appear that after playing golf for 13 years your golfing muscles would have strengthened to a degree that would rival your 'right side'.
If I were placed in your shoes, I would rather invest the time into refining the concepts you have learn and make your action more and more precise.
On this note, Phil Mickelson is a right hander who plays left handed and seems to have done rather well.
