Your spin is also way too high, (like, by 80-100%) so I'm just going to guess that your attack angle is way too steep.  I also can't imagine how it's possible to hit the center of the clubface on a swing with 101 speed and only get 131 ball speed.  That doesn't add up.

The first thing I would try is to find out what your ball position is relative to your feet.  Is it in the middle of your stance?  Put that thing up by your front foot.  If it's already by your frint foot, go a little further.  If that doesn't work, try teeing it up lower.  Just keep experimenting until something clicks.

Or take a video and start swing thread.  You could get some good feedback there too.

I have take students that was hitting a push fade and corrected it by strengthen the grip.

If the face is open to the target it can. It is possible

A push fade is created by a square path with an open face to that path. I know that the path can be in to out to hit a push fade but its not as common,  its harder to keep the face open to the path when swinging from inside to hit a push fade/slice.

No a push fade is a swing were the ball looks relatively going straight off to the right of your target path, and then fades that much.

Your definition is for a any fade or slice, push or pull. Because if the clubface is slightly open to swing path, it will cause a fade or slice, but if its closed to the target path, then you have a pull slice, if its open to target line, its a push fade. Which distinguishes from over the top, to inside out. Which might mean different corrections.

NO, my definition is for a push slice. A fade or cut is left to right, not right then cures more to the right.

What you are saying is correct, its a square path in-square-in with the face open to the path.
