I've been trying and trying to snap the fingers of my dominant (right) hand ever since you posted this question, boomer. No go. Cannot get any sound whatever from the fingers of that hand. Weak left hand? No prob.

Dominant (right) hand louder.
Higher pitch in left hand.

They sound the same to me (no matter which ear I listen with).
I am not a finger snapper-er...I am a tongue-on-mouth-roof popper.
Can u do that in rhythm with music that u really enjoy ?

Thanks all!
Non dominant is slightly edging out dominant 8 - 5 (with 3 reporting no difference).
This question arose out of dinner table conversation and an observation by Mo that we could all snap louder with the hand we didn't write with. I explained to him about a "hypothesis" and we started testing it. Our survey of friends and neighbors titled pretty heavily towards non-dominant hand so the results here are especially interesting.
This might make a good science fair project for him in a few years!
U got that backward,
except qua left-handed people.

Does he have an opinion about guns ?
He likes them ?
He doesn 't like them ?
I had completely forgotten Mo's hypothesis from half his life ago. I reminded him of it after seeing it here. We had a good laugh and then experimented to see if anything had changed in our snapping abilities. I have a feeling everyone at school will be put to the snapping test today.
. Fiancé for life is right handed is snaps with left hand and myself vice versa so we googled this and almost overdosed laughing. Long story short, anyone know the antidote for that?
