I hate my ballflight.

[Franco!]

Does anyone else suffer from the same ailment that I do?
Left to right is so ugly to me.
I try to fight it and then the ball just goes more and more right.

I used to hate my left to right ball flight. Then I started to draw the ball and I realized that I was so used to taking the left side of the fairway out that I had no idea what I was doing with the draw. I am very happy with my fade and I wouldnt want any other ball flight. Are you slicing or fading the ball, there is a huge difference. Is your problem with all your clubs just irons, or just woods?

Honestly, I'm glad I do have a ball flight.

A lot of people don't have a consistent one and are all over the place. I can hit fairways all day, I just don't like it. "They don't paint pictures on the scorecard" is the line I hear all day. It's my woods. I can shape everything with my irons, but I have one ball flight with my woods, the 5-10 yard cut.

I used to hit the ball very high - when I first started, I thought the higher, the better. Eventually, I lowered my ball flight, delofting the clubface at impact as I improve. I still have a naturally high ball flight though. I can hit the draw or fade equally well - sometimes I just don't know which one will result though.

I have found that I hit that "bleeder" off to the right if I don't finish my swing. Release your hands, and let the club wip thru impact.

Remember what Dr. Dirt always says... "Swing hard in case you hit it!"

I currently hit a Very very high slight fade.

I do not like it at all. I don't mind the very high part, but I don't like the fade. I started doing a little bit of outside-in on my downswing. I can't adjust to it yet, and haven't hit as many GIR's as i'd like.

That may be a product of your grip. It's it's too weak, you can have a real high fade. I mean, most of the time it's swing path and other issues, but I had my grip too weak, and I was ballooning the ball with a high fade, and losing about 30 yards on each club, not even joking. I used to hit my 7 iron 125 yards (I know, it was pathetic, which I knew something was wrong...) and now I hit it 150.

That could be the case, But I'm not losing any distance, I can hit my 7i as high as someones PW and still get it to about 165-170. Distance is not a problem at all, I just hit it really high.

I can see in my divots though they are going left.

Oh yeah, then that's just cutting across it with an open face...just work on keeping that right elbow tucking into your 'pocket' on your downswing.

All you need to do is sing inside to out wich promotes a better realese throught the ball, a faster swing speed because you naturally turn your wrists over, and a slight draw.
