After a few OWS practice swims, I have found I consistently veer to the right and have to constantly make course corrections after sighting. I am guessing this is because I am right handed and a little stronger on that side. Does that sound right? Any suggestions for how to improve?

Thanks

I just had to make corrections to my stroke causing the same problems. My issue was crossover. Instead of my hands coming out straight in front of my shoulders, they were crossing over to the opposite shoulder. I noticed once I corrected the crossover. I was swimming straight. Mabey this will help? Good luck,

Same here. The more I improve my stroke, the better my navigation gets.
