I'm pretty far back, so I don't think that's the issue.

I wear my shinguards under my pants, thank you. So hooking my mitts underneath is not an option. With a righty up, your left hand is exposed. That's just part of the risk. I was just unlucky enough to take two identical shots on both sides of the dish within a matter of minutes. Really weird and painful.
