How To Hit a Fade

There are occasions in every round when you’d love to be able to hit a gentle controlled left to right fade, perhaps round a tree or to a pin cut behind a bunker on the right-hand side of the green. Well, it’s easy if you practise this simple drill.

Set up the Swing Arms and Foot Alignment Bar parallel to the target and then move them all about 10-degrees to the left of your target. Address the ball with your feet, hips and shoulders all parallel to the Foot Alignment Bars and the ball slightly forward in your stance. Now with the help of the ball locator place the club head facing the target, and then take your grip (the club face should appear open) Now, slowly at first, practise swinging without making contact with the Bristles on the Swing Arms. In no time at all, you’ll be hitting gentle fades. It’s as simple as that.
