I can hit a decent pull draw with a mid iron, but when I try to hit a draw of any kind with my driver off of the tee, it goes about 30 yards, then drops off of the table like a drop ball or knuckle ball in baseball.  I feel as if I'm hitting it solidly, but when I say it falls off of the table, I mean it drops almost straight down.  I have to be putting some kind of a funky spin on the ball.  I would also like to change my draw to a push draw...I start out with an inside to, what I think, is an outside swing, but I must be trying to involuntarily correct my front swing.  Anyone have any idea what I may be doing wrong, and how I can correct it to obtain a push draw?  Thanks!!

Welcome to the site. Going from a pull draw to a push draw would probably mean that you have to change your path from across the ball (INward) to OUTward.

I'd recommend starting a swing thread to confirm what piece you need to focus on to change your pattern.

Good thread to check out to help you swing more outward.

    • Day 556 - 2026-04-10 Played another 17 holes, this time skipping #11 to pass a group that was still on 14 when we were finishing up. 😛 Not as good as yesterday, but more distracted by the mind's eye.
    • Yes, you've gone on about it for like 20 years now. 😉 
    • I really do find the masters stuffed shirts to be insufferable. Or is it instufferable?
    • I'm hearing this morning that Robert MacIntyre may be facing some sort of discipline (probably a stern warning) for the finger incident on 15 yesterday.  It dawns on me his upbringing would have been during Tiger's prime years -- he's 29 now, and would have been in elementary school in the early 21st century.  Someone should tell him that the swearing wasn't what made Tiger great at golf.   Or John Daly (or Don January?) or whoever else we associate with both being good at golf and producing choice words on television.
