If your left hand is the lower hand on an ice hockey stick is the stick considered to be left or right handed?
Our plant produces about 30% left to 70% right for forward sticks. However, almost all goalies play left, no matter which-handed they are.
Keep in mind that in forward positions right-handed people often play left, and vice versa, so the stick they use is not always an indication of which hand they write with. Only a very few goalies play right...probably fewer than 10% in professional hockey.
If one is left handed they would just use a regular hockey stick. They are all made to be to be ambidextrous so that right and left handed people can use them easily.
