  1. my ball seem to fade off right , I try to hit the ball with a 100% power
    all the time any tips I mean I hit a four iron 200 yards but its not that
    accurate . . it looks like a weak slice come power fade . . ?

  7. i’d like to know where the ball ended up. but everything sounded like it
    worked so i’ll assume its on the green

  8. So basically it wants you to change your swing mechanics and your plane?
    Sounds so easy a pro could do it. I’d rather keep things simple. Aim the
    body right at address while pointing the club face at the target.

  9. One of the best tips.- Keep your right shoulder back longer on the
    downswing.This has really helped me. Thank you. Dave.

  11. @izzy0210 a draw goes farther and lets you play more shots. It’ll roll more
    or, if you want to and play with a weak grip and it’ll land softer

  12. As a previously CHRONIC slice demon, this is EXACTLY what the local pro
    taught me and I’m cured. Ball goes further and feels “stronger” after I’ve
    hit it. Good tip I say.

  13. This is so silly , if you aim the modern drive right of target it will
    always go right of target…..always aim at target and adjust stance to
    suit either fade or draw!

  14. samething for me…i can draw-fade with my iron, but only fade with my
    driver or wood… where the strategy differs with the wood shot???

  15. Your knees, shoulders, hips and feet should all be parallel to the target
    line. If you hold the club up to your shoulders, the line it makes should
    be parallel to the target line. Ditto for the knees, hips, and feet. They
    won’t point directly at the target, because that would mean your shoulders,
    etc. are not parallel to the target line. That is why its “parallel left”.
    If you’re a left-hander, it would parallel right. Does that make sense?

  16. With the same swing When i open the driver club face a lot I draw/hook the
    ball when I keep the face straight the ball fades/slices. Most of my shots
    start left and then draws ending up on the left side of the fairway or in
    the left rough. When i open the face i feel i can swing through and around
    more easily. Some times when i take the club on the outside with the hands
    only the ball goes straingt right and fades. what is happening?

  18. 1st. Learn to hit golf ball correctly (read Hogan) 2nd. Aim feet right of
    target with club face aimed at target. 3rd. Swing normal swing. For fade,
    reverse. If you cannot do #1 do not bother going to stage two or three. You
    people think too much. The club is in the impact zone for a millisecond.
    You cannot think that fast. You have to work the ball based on your set up
    and then swing normal. The set up must create a consistant fade or draw.
    Otherwise, you cannot count on it at all.

  19. Straighten right arm on the way down? LOLZ. Ben Hogan would slap this guy.
    Butt end of club towards ball/path towards top is excellent tho. All Jack
    Nicklaus did was change his foot alignment, no flippy stuff.

  21. this is not a good way to hit a draw, because it may cause a hook. it is
    better if you do not “cross over the right arm over the left arm” but just
    swing with the patch more in to out in comparison with the clubface at
    impact

  23. Its a lot of the tim based on preference but more on what the shot
    requires. If you have to swing a ball back left due to an obstical, then
    you’ll use the draw. Same goes for the fade.

  24. at the start of the video, were told to aim the club slightly right whilst
    keeping the shoulders, hips, knees and feet pointing parallel left of the
    target. when it comes to the shot round the trees, hes telling us to aim
    everything right?

  25. Yeah this guy is dead on. I tried it and it works. I think he explains the
    draw very well. Good stuff.
