Re: please help

Hi Billy,

Assuming all things equal (swing and alignment), this could be due to a couple of things. The first thing that comes to my mind is shaft flex. The shaft is the most influential piece of your golf club when it comes to your ball flight. The best solution is to get your driver checked by a professional club fitter to see if it matches up with your swing. The other problem that fading can be related to is that your ball is not positioned far enough ahead in your stance. This simply means that your club face is not getting completely square at contact. Try moving the ball another ball length towards your target.

Keep us updated on your success!
