Changing hands

Allen Robson Asked 9 years ago

I had a recent bicep injury and I'm going to have to stop playing with my right hand. On the plus side I am actually left handed and my F/H feels 100 % natural and smooth. How long do you think it would take for me to be competitive and do you have any tips on any training methods?

thanks

Hi Allen,

Well done on moving forward.

I think just allow yourself time to adjust.  It is an advantage that you already have so much knowledge from playing with your right hand.

As far as how long it will take, I really can't tell.  Probably about a year or so depending on your level at the moment.

Let us know how you progress.
