Draw farther than Fade

why does a draw go farther than a fade?

Hight. A fade is hit with an open clubface. That increases the loft of the club. That will hit the ball higher. A higher hit ball will rise up quickly and fall at a steeper decent. That angle causes the ball to stop sooner. You may land the ball further away from it starting point, but it will not run very far.

A draw has a closed club face and therefor has less loft causing the ball to fly lower, land sooner but run longer.

All this can depend on the landing surface. Where hills can affect the true angle of decent the ball takes when it hits the gound, this can varry the results some. But in a flat world and everything equal, a draw will end up further away from you then a fade.

Here is asimple way to describe why a draw goes farther than a fade.

When you hit a draw the ball rolls left and forward More Distance

When you hit a fade the ball rolls right and sideways Less Distance

Logic says that a ball rolling forward will produce more distance because of the spin on the ball
