It was most definitely quite different.

I can sort of understand some/most tools as they are generally 
made for right-handed use.  But most all sports equipment is 
built both ways.

Probably the same thing as many left handers used to go through on 
a regular basis.  

 RY> MY personal take is, use whichever hand seems to work..

Except for writing, my son is exclusively right handed.  And 
that right down to where it really counts:  Computer games!  I've 
got a joystick that can be used either way.  I even set it left 
handed for him.  He immediated changed it back to the right handed 
version.
