Thanks mark ive struggled for a year now trying to draw the ball and with this drill ive seen significant difference in my draw thank you so much and keep up the great work :)
-
Most instructors are saying you do your normal swing but aim your body and swing right of the target line and the club face stays on the target line. What is wrong with this conventional way?
-
i managed to stop the flight of the second ball you hit and it was directly over the bucket. When I hit a draw I just aim the clubface square to the target but swing more inside out which in effect closes the clubface. I suppose it's all the same principle though. I love you videos Mark best on here, how about shanking from the inside, any info? thanks

@4golfonline Well, you should refer to target line as well, since golfers are trying to hit that target .. you should also be more precise in how much on face angel and path one will need for the required shot I think ... just closing the face to the path will make it go left, hitting it from the inside will NOT start it right (enough) !!!

please make a video to hit a fade

@theMANxGOLFER Basically trackman tells us that using your technique you'd have to get it wrong to get the result you wish. Theres a huge difference between feel and do. You see tips all the time (like Tom watson's secret of the golf swing) which are essentially bad advice and /or wrong, but for some that FEEL prduces what they want
-
@theMANxGOLFER I ke your point but I'd say two things to that. First you need an open face at impact for a draw (only slightly-it must be closed relative to the path though, just closed to the original ball target line). Second, with your proposed technique why rely on timing of rolling the wrists-death under pressure and not repeatable. Just close the clubface at address if that's what you want-swing as normal with a closed clubface-you will hook it though, unless the face is opened

@cockywatchman1976 There are a lot of feel golfers out there that can tighten there grip and face their top hand just right of the starting target line to produce a high fade. Conversely, the same players can begin to roll their hands with a looser grip to produce a slight draw. Try practicing this on the range with 3/4 swings. I think you'll surprise yourself.
-
@theMANxGOLFER you cant hit a draw without changing path-if you just close face you hit a snap hook. Your technique cannot work, it's impossible
-
@4golfonline Also rotating hands/wrists through impact isn't good-its so inconsistent. Why not just start with a closed clubface if thats what you want at impact-take the timing out of it?
thanks for the great comments guys, you are both right. Modern club face club path rules state the ball starts where the club face is pointing. at 1:26 I say get your club face to contradict the club path, and the club face needs to point left of where the cub path is traveling. at 2:30 i say, " the club face needs to point left of the club path line. I do not refer to club to target line I always try to refer to club to club path line. Like you are both correctly saying. Great comment guys.

Sorry Mark but i think this is not correct:
the initial direction of the ball is dictated by the angle of the clubface. So basically a ball start right when the clubface at impact is pointing right (to the target).
The relation between clubpath and clubface gives sidespin, curvature to the ball.
So your clubface needs to be CLOSED to the clubpath to curve the ball from right to left.
Trying to close the clubface like you said will cause probably a pull-hook than a draw.
