Re: Share YOUR Draw Shot Knowledge TODAY!!

When I play a draw I setup with my feet and shoulders a little closed to target, I pull my back foot in a little from my lead foot, maybe an inch or just less. I make sure that I am hitting on a gentle in to out path and get the feel that the toe of the club is turning around the ball at impact. This results in the ball taking off right of target (left for left hander) then pulling back gradually into the centre.

Another way is to setup the same way with a closed stance but set the clubface pointing directly to target, hit the ball down the line of your feet, this will create some sidespin that bends the ball gradually back to centre. Don't overdo the closed stance and hit straight through the ball with a normal swing.

Do not mix the two methods, if you do then you will produce a great hook and become on closer terms with the wooded places of the course.
