How do you fade a golf ball?

Answer 1

Same problem here. Your hands are ahead of the club face at impact and the face hasn't had time to square up. I've found that just slowing down my normal swing will straighten the ball flight out a lot. The pro's I've seen giving clinics on the Golf Channel usually recommend setting the club face square with the fairway, then closing your stance so your feet are aimed to the right side of the target, with the back foot turned to the outside of the stance about 30 degrees. Then, you swing along the line of the feet, not the club face. This effectively closes the club face. If I had a sure-fire cure, I'd be giving those clinics on TV instead of in here anwsering questions. :-) Good luck with the swing.

Answer 2

Aim your feet and your body where you want the ball to start, then open the clubface to point where you want the ball to finish. For the swing you should swing out to in, that is take the club to the outside on the way back, and swing in on the downswing.

Answer 3

There are many ways: Make sure you don't lose balance especially toward your back foot. Make sure you swing the shaft of your club to your target don't just hold it. Another way is to make sure you get the club face back to square by the time you hit it.
