The sun is out, time for some practice.
As you will realise, not all fairways go in a nice straight line and even if on those that do, there will be occasions when the shortest route to the hole has a hazard of some sort in the way. This is where a "fade" or a "draw" shot can help your game.
To remind you; a draw will swing the ball to the left and a fade will swing the ball to the right, both in a curved trajectory and unlike a hook or a slice, these shots are deliberate and controlled. The hook and the slice also tend to be more "fierce" and can end up with the ball travelling at right angles to where you want it to go! And yes, been there done that! The draw and fade have a more subtle trajectory.
I used both these shots to good effect at the weekend and I even surprised myself at how easy they are to execute, once you get your head around the basic principles. Both shots can be classed as "advance" shots in some books, if you look around, but provided you are fairly consistent with your shots, there is no reason to wait until your handicap is in single figures to give them a go.
The principles for both shots are identical; it is really only the direction that changes. So let's start with the draw, moving to ball to the left. First, pick your target where you want to ball to go. Now address the ball normally and your shoulders, hips, knees and feet should be in line with your target. Now rotate yourself so you aim slightly to the right of the target.
Next, make sure the face of the clubhead is still pointing at the target. If you do not, then your shot will be straight and end up to the right of your target area.
Now take your shot with a slight in to out movement. This will put spin on the ball, rotating clockwise, if you were able to look down on the ball and this will make the ball fly in a gentle arc to the left. It will seem a little odd at first; wanting the ball to go left by pointing right, but with practice this will feel natural. You will find that a lot of the Pro's will put some spin on the ball to either draw or fade it as a matter of course.
For a fade, you can probably guess what's coming, but I will go through it. Again, find your target area. Address the ball facing your target, then rotate slightly to the left. Make sure that the clubhead is facing the target. Swing through with a slight out to in trajectory. The ball will then curve to the right.
There can be a tendency to try and help the ball around the corner and move your body or clubhead in the direction you want the ball to go. Try and resists this as it is by hitting one side of the ball that will cause the spin which in turn will curve it in the air.
Practice with your woods first of all, and then move on to your irons. It is important to practice with both woods and irons as they will have different characteristics and the resulting shot can differ depending on the club used.
