I read that article too and you have to know how to read betweent the lines because you cannot hit a fade and draw the exact same way. same clubhead speed on the ball, put a fade or draw, the draw will go further BECAUSE the club face is pushing as it wraps around the ball while in a fade it is a glancing blow
