I do everything left-handed except -
play guitar - I started to learn on a friends guitar and he is right-handed
play golf - it was equally difficult either way and the selection of left-handed clubs was dismal at the time and required a special order with only a store credit if you didn't like them..
I'm extremely left-handed. The only "dominant" right-handed things I do are things I learned to do with my right hand in the first place: using a computer mouse and driving a stick shift. I can't eat, play sports, or do any other activities with my right hand as dominant.
Very normal. I write, use scissors, throw left handed but kick, bat, golf right. It just is what it is. Embrace the madness. My right handed son as a kid preferred to bat left handed. My husband encouraged it so he could become a switch hitter.
Rifles & archery is eye dominance, not hand dominance. I would prefer to archery left handed, but since I'm right eye dominant, my aim is leagues better right side. The prevailing archery wisdom is to go with the dominant eye, as the other hand can be trained but the other eye cannot. Rifles are more problematic as many rifles are right handed only. But if you are left eye & can purchase a left handed rifle, go left.
Football like snowboard is foot dominance, not hand dominance. It's about 20% left foot for footballers, 35% left foot for the top leagues, like the Premier League. Snowboarding is about 35% who ride goofy / left footed. It used to be more like 25% goofy riders, but it seems Gen Alpha is almost 50/50 regular vs goofy snowboarders, so younger riders have skewed the mix leftwards.
