I've been Playing Golf for: 15 years
My current handicap index or average score is: 10 handicap
My typical ball flight is: 10-15 yard fade with long clubs (5i-D), 5 yard draw with shorter clubs (6i-LW)
The shot I hate or the "miss" I'm trying to reduce/eliminate is: With my short irons and wedges I typically pull the ball about 5 yards to start but it stays on that line. With longer clubs and driver I typically push it about 5 yards and then it fades for another 15-20 yards. I'd also like to add distance, I have the muscle but I think I'm losing lots of distance with my current swing.

That's slightly better.  Let your left hip sink down into a straighter right leg on the backswing.  Like this guy:

That will get your shoulders turning down the line more and give you some leverage to drive the hips forward.

    • Although the base rules don't make this really clear, the Player must have decided to use Unplayable Ball relief before lifting the ball.  This exact situation is discussed in the Committee Procedures section of the Rules, section 6C(8).  Section 6C addresses how to rule when a Player proceeds under a Rule that does not apply.  Note that 9.4 applies, 9.4 deals with a player moving his ball when no rule allows it.   Rule 9.4 penalizes the Player for lifting his ball when not permitted by the Rules, and requires him to replace it.  Since he dropped and played from a different place, the Wrong Place penalty applies.  As for a serious breach, that would only apply if the Wrong Place gave him a really significant advantage.  Since he could have taken Unplayable Ball relief in essentially the same spot, for just 1 penalty stroke, the Wrong Place penalty of 2 strokes is enough "punishment", there's no need to consider a DQ.
