Hey this is my first post been looking on here for the last few weeks and think it's great the knowledge the community has collectively. 

 

That being said I wanted to see if anyone could answer my question. 

 

I know my swing is OK etc. And have the ability to play some good golf not great golf but good golf, my driver often let's me down though, causing a slice or a push due to leaving the club face open its the only club I do this with I have a baby draw with all irons, so I was practicing last week and a fellow golfer said why do you lean you're irons forward before you hit like that (forward press) got me thinking so I tried it with driver and boom baby draw again and again and again so consistent, I know I should just take it at its face value but can anyone explain why this is, I guess I'm weird I like to know how things work and why 😂

I wonder what that does to your swing path.  I'm not quite good enough to be able to figure out why, but reading about the ball flight laws (link at bottom of this post) is probably worth doing given the question.  By the way, welcome to TST.
