    I golf the wrong way supposedly from the golf establishments view.   One would think that in this day and age both lefty and righty hitters would be acknowledged in the virtual game.

    Point being the game only allows for a right handed hitter.  One would think that a game that attracts the calibe rof players such as pros would accommadate a left hand hitter profile.

    Why we even have at least two left hand hitters playing currently on the US Ryder cup team!

    The game and technology is wonderful however without the ability to have a left hand hitter tee from his side leaves much to be desired.   One can only conclude that the makers of the game have the old mentality of not acknowledging lefties therefore not accomodating them for the game.

    Could be constured as discrimination wouldn't you say?

    Hi

    I can assure you, it's not. Besides the actual technical issues, there is no other reason I know of why it is not included.

    In some languages the term left-handed translates as Sinister. Just another piece of useless knowledge that has somehow stuck in my brain.

    Left-handed people weren't named for sinister people.  Sinister people were named for left-handed people.

    Be that as it may, there is no good reason for not providing left-handed avatars and swings.  It's a minor modification to graphics procedures and vector generation.  That being said, since I'm in the right-handed majority I probably won't be whining about this.
