Anyone know how to fix a minor fade. I normally do not fade, the ball, and it is now becoming irritating. As the fade amount is getting ridiculous.

My shots are coming off straight, and about 40 yards to the pin, it will start to turn far to the right (I'm right handed). My divots are straight, I've tried many things to fix the problem.

I've tried opening my front foot (to ease the transition of clearing my hips), closing my right hand a little more (changing my grip), changing ball position (both forward and back a bit) and have not found the solution.

PLEASE HELP!!!

It could very well be, that what you think is a straight takeoff really is a pull to the left. It sounds very outside-in.

Consider visiting a Pro with a Trackman og a Vector launch monitor.

hi
i would agree with Mox in it sounds very like a outside to in swing.
check your right elbow is not away from your hip on the downswing.
cheers
