Weird Spin?

[mdl]

My mishits tend to be push fades. I keep my left arm close to the body to start the backswing and my right elbow in so I don't come over the top, but on my mishits I tend to go from, fire the hips first, to, yank the left shoulder out, and then I come across the ball with the face open a bit, start it close to the target, but then fade it well off target.

My question is, on a so-so day, when I'm fading it but not that much, and starting it on target, so I'm ending up on the far right side of a lot of greens, some days I'll still bring it back well left of the divot. I get pretty good spin (despite my crappy ass irons), so it usually comes back with anything less than a 5 iron, but how can a serious fade spin back like I was drawing it?

Maybe I'm misunderstanding you but a fade will have more backspin than a draw.

If so, that's only because the effective loft adds a little more backspin. Fades don't naturally have more backspin than draws.

You are right, sorry I should have been more specific.

Sorry I was unclear. I wasn't saying that I was surprised that my fades come back more in general, but that they come back to the left. Some days they'll come back and to the right like I would expect, but some days they'll come back and to the left, which I would only expect on a draw. Am I getting some sort of weird double movement or something?
