From Ron, golfer:
How do you turn a pull into a draw? Also, how do you turn a fade into a draw? Feel and real are two different things. At impact and the follow through what should I feel when I want to hit the ball straight and a draw? Thank you!

"Hi Ron. This is a very common problem amongst amateur golfers. The major problem that would need to be corrected is an improper path thru impact. A pull and a fade are typically both caused by a path coming from outside the target line, to inside the target line. With this type of path, if you release the club, you end up with a pull; if you "hold on" to the club, you get a shot that starts left and fades back to the right. The corrective measure would be to get the path coming from the inside-to down the line-to inside. This would encourage a shot that would start to the right and draw back to the target. It's a great question, a common problem, and I hope this helps you out!"
