[QUOTE="ratski, post: 2788931, member: 936"] Well, with an impending right shoulder surgery on the horizon, I am once again looking at having to rely on my left hand to pick up the slack while my right arm is healing. I went thru this a few years ago with carpal tunnel surgery and I found that pre-surgery practice paid off well. So, here I am practicing again. Thought that I'd pass this on. Figure it could serve preppers well as well as serve us all in regular life. Before my carpal tunnel surgery, I took an ACE bandage and wrapped it around my right hand to practice what it would be like to not have the full use of that hand. It really is amazing how many "little things" you depend on your dominant hand for during the course of the day. And it is even more amazing how many of those "little things" can't easily be duplicated on demand by your non dominant hand So, I'll pass the idea on. Implementation is up to the reader. Much like some people recommend unplugging from the grid for a day or two to see how your preparations will fare, I'd say practice a day or two without your dominant hand and/or arm. You will be really surprised. Dave [/QUOTE]
