I am a low handicap golfer, a 2 to 3 handicap! I have a serious problem with my divots pointing to the left of my target and my ball flight either a draw to the direction of the divot pointing left or a push cut a good ten yards right of my target. Need help please

Nobody will really be able to help you much without video.

Heh, I can't wait for the day that I call 10 yards right, "a good ten yards," and am all worried about it. :-P

Seriously, though, there are a lot of smart folks here that I'm sure would be able to help, but you gotta post some video and get to know'em first (and then wait patiently, it's free help, after all). Until you get video posted, I'd suggest starting here: 

Whatever your index, the 5 keys are for everybody. Good luck! ;-)

    • Day 33 (20 Feb 26) - played the Friday men’s group shootout.  Solid day of working from some tough shot results - made for a good number of up and downs for par (8 of the 9 pars were such). Cart mate and I discussed the visual aspect of the game - and how much it plays into the individual’s mindset during the round.  Love when the discussion is focused on learning and taking positives away and not just how bad the miss may be.  
    • Day 507 - 2026-02-20 Got some backswing work in on GEARS Hybrid.
    • Still kinda working on the backswing stuff. I can turn < 45°, but I tend to tilt toward the target a little. I can tilt away from the target, but I tend to turn a bit more. Case in point. I can do it, though: This I can do all day (it's more lateral than I want, but it's very linear): Here's what 38° of turn looks like. Almost freaking nothing.
    • Good progress. I am finally feeling like I am settling my weight into my right foot earlier in the backswing. Right hip sinks back, right leg feels staying flexed. Feeling very stable and firm in the right leg. I feel like I could do a good squat with that right leg. Very balanced. 
    • oops, forgot Pebble Beach and Spyglass.  And two more of the original Open rota, Prestwick and Musselburgh (with hickory shafted rentals).  And Muirfield.  And maybe a few more, I'll check my list when I get home.
