I play with a fade usually no problem looks great works well but recently it got pretty severe
Any tips?

In my Warbird Bag,
I have
Burner Driver 460cc 9.5* Stiff
Three and Five Woods
Precise- 21* and 24* hybridsCCi Cast Irons-4-AW 52* and 56*/14 Vokey 60*/8and i play TP Black or ProV1


Make sure you're wrists are turning so the club face is closed at impact

In the bag:
Driver: r7 quad v2 stiff
3-Wood: XLS
Hybrid: X
Irons: CG Golds 3-GWSW: x forged 56/13LW: Vokey sm 60/.08Putter: Callie 35''Ball: pro v1


don't cut across it as much.. basically you're almost slicing it ? try to have a straighter swing path or even better in-out and obviously make sure your clubface isn't open at impact

GS Tour - 15* -GD Red Ice
Rescue TP - 17* - Fujikura TP
Idea Pro Gold - 20* - Mitsubishi JavlnFX
MP-30, 4-PW - Standard Lofts / 2* flat - TT DG RAC Z TP (54*/10*) X-Forged (60*/10*)Scotty Cameron TeI3 - 35"


One thing I found to really help me with my fade is to maintain the flat wrist plane on the backswing. For instance, on the top of your back swing, you should be able to put a ruler or anything flat and rest it on the top of your forearm and there shouldn't be a gap where your wrist is...it should all be flat. This will promote you to release at the proper time at impact and less likely have a fade/slice. This worked for me...hope it helps.

In The Bag:

Driver: R7 SuperQuad 460 9.5
3 Wood: G5 w/ Graffaloy Pro Launch Stiff
3-PW: MP60's Wedges: Black Pearl 52, 56, 60Putter: White Hot #4Ball: Pro V1


I have this problem some. I play a slight cut with my driver and every now and then its a big fade. I know this is when my hips get out ahead of my upper body. Maybe check that by slowing your swing down just a touch and work more on tempo.

This might not be the problem, but it sounds like what I do occasionally so I figured I would throw in my 2 cents.

Driver: 905R 9.5*
3-wood: 906F 13*
Irons: Forged Blades
Wedges: Black Satin SV Tour 52* , 56*, 60*

1. make sure your stance is square, maybe even a bit closed.
2. swing down the line more, or even from the inside a bit.
3. make sure you make a full release.
4. as has been said, if ur hips slide out too quick ur clubface will get thrown open, pretty much assuring a bad slice.

Double check your grip as well as your grip tension. The more loose your right hand is, the more likely the club will be able to be released naturally instead of actively.
