    Finally someone who actually teaches this the right way way ..to hit a draw the club face needs to be closed slightly but still with a neutral grip at address. Other instructors are just saying aim the club face slightly right of target line which won’t move the ball much ..if anything you will just hit it along the swing path ..ie. straight right .Nice work Alex!

    Alex, not sure if you're still getting notifications for this two year old video or not, but thought I would ask. Tried this today on the range after seeing it. Worked ok for it being the first time--more practice will help for sure. I'm not sure or can't tell about your left foot? Once you set up square with the target line, you then moved your right foot back and turned your right shoulder too. Did/does the left foot stay as is? or does it turn a little too? Did I confuse you? lol

  • @SwitchInsanity
    @SwitchInsanity 3 года назад +1

    If you find yourself to be hooking the ball, do you think keeping the face standard rather than slightly closed at the start could reduce the curvature? I feel I've got a good in to out path but feel the face is coming in to impact too closed now?

    I use to Slice the ball with my driver all the time but now that I have finally gotten the ball to draw consistently I can't seem to figure out how to make it go right or even straight anymore? It seems that I have practiced instead of playing so intently this entire Summer that now my ball never goes right, even when I want it to. Would you please consider doing a video on how to Fade the ball with the Driver. Because once I learned to Draw the ball with the Driver, drawing it with all my other clubs was relatively easy. I figure it may work that way with the Fade? Thanks Mr. Elliott!

    Always love your explanations and visuals, top notch. The front 9 on my home course really favors a draw but go to shot is the fade, this explanation on draw was excellent.🤙 I have also read alot about putting ball slightly farther back in your stance which feels even more unusual on top of closing stance, which compared to usual fade feel like entire back is to the hole. Thoughts?

  • @beezkneez87
    @beezkneez87 3 года назад

    Hi - Is you instructions for a draw based on a nuetral club face? I have a M2 driver which has an adjustable loft and I have my club face closed. I see when you explain setting up for the draw the club face has to be in the direction of where you are wanting to hit it. If my club face is closed it means my foot position would be in a very closed position so the club face is square to the target. What do you suggest for this please?

    I'm confused. I've seen instructors say to close the face a little, and others say to open the face a little. Here you state you want your driver's face to be between the target line, and the other line pointing to the right, then later you say to close the face.
