Well said....... With a proper alignment and swing path, you shouldn't have to do anything to make the ball hook. For me as a lefty.....I align myself a little to the left...., and keep the clubhead square to where I want the ball to hook towards and just swing naturally to hit a 5yd draw.
I do the opposite to hit a fade... I setup 5yds to the right of target (I'm a lefty) and keep the blade square to the pin or wherever I want the ball to fade towards. it's really not that difficult if you really think about it. I prefer to hit a draw, but can hit a fade if there is big trouble left.
My home course has two greens that literally roll straight off the fringe and down a cliff on the left......I hit fades into those holes..LOL
