So first off let’s get the basics out of the way.
A hook or a draw is a golf shot that goes from right to left, whereas a fade or slice is a shot that goes from left to right.
This applies to right-handed golfers, if you’re a left-handed golfer please reverse all techniques within this article.
Is a fade better than a draw?
“Provided the ball speed, launch angle and spin rate are the same, a draw and fade will carry and roll the same distance. However, from a practical perspective, most club golfers will hit a draw further than a fade, because when they hit a draw they reduce the loft, leading to lower spin rates.

Why do I hit a slice with my driver?
Golfers often find themselves in the woods after hitting a slice. A slice shot is caused by a poor grip and setup, an outside-to-in downswing path and an open clubface. Grip the club with the left hand first (again, for a right-handed golfer). Position the grip mainly in the fingers of your left hand.
Does Tiger Woods hit a draw or fade?
Ben Hogan hit a mercilessly controlled fade. Nicklaus also played a fade, but his shots were towering, flying far and landing softly. Palmer favored a hard, working man’s hook. Tiger, by contrast, seems to have embraced just about every swing he could think of.
How do you hit a draw?
Golf Draw Method (Easier Version)
- Set up so that the club face is aiming slightly to the right of your target.
- Aim your feet, hips and shoulders further to the right than the club face (this will, in effect, give the club face a closed position in relation to the swing path, imparting draw spin on the golf ball).

Why do I slice off the tee?
Many people slice because they let their elbows slide inside and thus opening up the club head. By keeping your elbow into your side, you can force your arms to “turnover” and hit the ball flush with the club head. As you bring the club through, be sure to keep your front shoulder straight or facing toward the hole.

Why do golf balls fade?
A fade shot – the ball curving to the right for a righty – is caused by a clockwise spin (or “fade spin”) on the golf ball. Or, if your swing path has your club moving slightly from outside-to-inside (“wiping” or “swiping” across the ball at impact), the fade shot can result.
Is a fade left to right?
A draw curves from the player’s right to his left (for a right-handed golfer) while a fade moves in the opposite direction, from left to right. Some players hit draw shots or fade shots naturally.
What is the easiest golf ball to see?
Although some public ranges dye their balls yellow in order to keep ball snatchers at bay, bright yellow is considered an excellent choice for tracking and visibility against green grass. According to the brand manager at Srixon golf balls, yellow balls are three times easier to spot at a distance of 250 yards.
