How To Hit A Draw In Golf - This Method Is Simple And Accurate
There are many advantages to be realized with the ability to work the ball to where you want it to finish. The draw in golf is one of those controllable shape shots that most skilled golfer's are good at.
Why would you want to hit a draw?
A draw ball flight on the drive will move slightly to the left and typically generate more forward roll, thus more distance.
If you have a left pin placement you may want to start the ball at the middle of the green and move it left to get close, safely.
If you have an obstacle, such as a tree in your line of sight you could use a draw to go around it to the right and still end up to the left.
Most amateur or recreational golfer's because they think shape shots are very difficult to learn avoid even trying.
This thinking is not their fault, a lot of the methods presented for hitting a draw are at the very least confusing, and many of them are not necessary. I am not saying they are wrong, just that there are many ways to make the changes needed to hit very good draw shots whenever called for.
Here are a few examples;
Move the ball forward in your stance (not necessary)
Open the club face (this is wrong)
Close your stance (yes, but there is a very easy way)
Make an early release ( not necessary)
Some of the problems with multiple step procedures is they are difficult to remember. When you are in the heat of competition you need a method that is easy to set up for, easy to execute and easy to remember.
This simple method is different in that you are only required to make two simple changes to your standard full swing set up. in order to be in perfect position to hit a draw, and even control how far it draws.
It works the same for any club from the driver to the hybrids and irons.
The simple method is as follows;
Put your club face on the ground behind the ball and aimed directly at where you want the ball to finish.
Without moving your club face align your body to the ball just as if you are going to make a full swing, now move your trail foot back slightly so your toe line points to the path you want the ball to start on.
Align your body to the new toe line and make your normal swing along this line.
With only two simple changes to your standard set up, you have slightly closed the club face, and aligned your body slightly to the right of the target. This method is easy to set up for, easy to execute, and easy to remember. Just what you to hit a great draw shot.
Try this on the range, practice until you get it down, and then take on the course.
