You understand the physics of it, right? Clubface closed relative to swing path.

Close your stance, keep your clubface pointing at the target or a teeny bit left of the target (if your swing naturally leaves it open a bit).

I used to fade a ball and slice it heavily too. I read an article with Darren Clarke and he said if he wants to hit a draw he strengthen his grip so he can see 3 or even 4 knuckles on his left hand.

I tried it and have never looked back tbh. It gives you a massive help closing the face and i now hit most of my shots with a nice draw or straight. If i want to hit a fade i just weaken my grip. Try it!

This may seem a little counter-intuitive. But ive found better success in working the ball by "thinking it" rather than anyting mechanical. I dont purposfully move the ball around often, but when i need to hit a draw, i just think draw. Then it magically happens. Whenever ive tried to set up mechanically to hit a draw or a fade, i end up hitting it dead strait and ruining myself.
