draw vs fade:

It depends on the course you play. Most courses are set up with right handed slicers in mind, so a draw is usually a better shot to have as your natural flight. If there are a lot of doglegs which all go in one direction, than a fade or a draw that works with the doglegs would be advantageous. Other than that, there is no advantage of playing one vs another. A draw will have a bit lower ball flight and will have a bit more distance. A fade will go higher with less role, therefore less distance. I think it is very important to be able to hit BOTH. I try to keep my flight pattern straight as possible. That way it is easier to play a fade/slice or a draw/hook when the situation presents itself.
