Just curious about the number of people on here who can control thier swing to the point of hitting a fade or draw when they try to.

I just learned how to do this (for the most part), and am wondering how basic or advanced this is. I haven't played much on courses. Mostly kept to the range cause I don't want to hold everyone up.

Thanks.

Draw
I simple close my face to where I want the ball to end up at and take my regular swing.

Fade
I simple open my club face and take my regular swing. I will lose some distance so I may need to take extra club.

Fade
Sometime I need to take my club on more of an outside line to get my woods to fade and I will adjust the club face with some practice.

Sidehill Lies
I will also open my club face to compensate for the uphill or downhill slopes to adjust for the draw or fade lies also.

      Comment:  Huh, I practiced regularly until 1/31, got busy in Feb-Mar (as I knew I would), and got reinspired today.  I have done some intermittent practice in the past two months, but let's get back on the daily practice wagon. Day 1, April 9 2026.  I worked on some pelvis turn limiting drills, doing one for several iterations before context switching to hit a few balls slowly (trying to retain that feeling), and repeating.

      I’m thinking maybe Jason Day read my post. He’s sitting a -3 two off Rory and Burns.

      Is it only the weekend broadcasts that have a low commercial count?  I feel like it has been a long while since I last watched a Thursday of the Masters, so maybe my recollection is off.  I feel today has a lot more than four minutes per hour of commercials, and far fewer of the fun stories they tell during the Sunday broadcast.
