A draw for a left hander is where the ball starts left and comes back towards the right. To hit this you simply aim your body where you want the ball to start, and aim the clubface where you want the ball to end up, which essentially has the effect of closing the clubface. You will need to swing round your body.

A draw requires that the club be moving close to along the target line and strike the ball with the clubface slightly closed. The simplest way is to have a good swing (there's an easy one) and set up with a slight close on the face. Jack Nicklaus describes this method in "Golf My Way." You have to be sure that you're really closing the face relative to your hands, not just rotating your hands so the face is closed at address. Also make sure that you've adjusted your stance so that the ball takes off on the line you intended, not in a pull direction right into the tree that you're trying to draw around. If you overlooked that first requirement about having a good swing, pretty much anything can happen here. One of my favorites is to hit from the outside-in, so that the closed clubface combines with the pull swing to create a spectacular hook to the far side of the next fairway. Another is to swing so hard with the body that the hands can't catch up, so the face is still open at contact, leading to a banana slice just like usual, but even farther from the intended landing area than usual. In other words, if you're not already playing in the 80s, avoid the misery that I've put myself through and just concentrate on hitting it straight.

What is a golf club with draw correction?

A draw golf club is one which has a heavier weight on the heel of the club. The idea behind this is it slows the heel coming through the ball so the toe comes through quicker, this holds the face square through impact and prevents the ball from slicing. Slicing is mainly caused by an open face at impact, draw drivers prevent this.

Why does a draw go farther than a slice?

A draw usually has a lower trajectory so you get more roll once the ball hits the ground. "Draw" and "slice" are not mirror golf shots. For a right handed golfer, a draw moves gently from right to left, a hook moves severely from right to left, and a fade moves gently from left to right, a slice moves severely from left to right. A draw tends to have over-spin, which will cause it to run, where a fade tends to have backspin and lands "soft".
