You know, the rowing thing actually DID occur to me! It definitely affects my golf swing (what little of it there is) because of the whole dropping-your-inside-shoulder thing. Because I rowed starboard for so long, I automatically drop my left shoulder, which makes swinging a golf club right-handed and having to drop my right shoulder feel all weird. Isn't that funny? I haven't rowed in, like, 10 years!
