Why do I draw my driver?
If it’s a pull, there are two likely reasons why the ball is starting left: 1) your body and clubface are aimed left of the target at address, which promotes an out-to-in path; or 2) you’re aiming properly but the clubface is closed too much at the point of contact.
What is a draw type driver?
Draw-bias drivers are designed to provide you with the ability to square the face more to the path. This happens because the club’s center of gravity is placed closer to the shaft of the club, allowing the club’s closure rate to increase. This will make it easier to square the clubface at impact.
Why can’t I hit a draw with my driver?
The last and perhaps most common reason you can’t hit a draw is that you have an over-the-top swing path. If you’re swinging over-the-top (on an out-to-in path), it’s impossible to hit a draw. This is because an over-the-top swing will result in a shot that starts to the left of your target line.
How do you hit a driver with left handed?
Left Foot Back Just before starting the swing, players can draw back the left foot. This alteration in the stance will cause the body to aim well left of the target and force the swing path more in-to-out. To hit a draw shot, left handed golfers will be forced to release the club (cross the forearms) through impact.
Why do I slice the ball with my driver?
A slice shot is caused by a poor grip and setup, an outside-to-in downswing path and an open clubface. An outside-to-in path occurs when the golfer reaches too far on the downside, bringing the club down to the right of the ball (outside), relative to the target line.
Why am I snap hooking my driver?
How Does the Snap Hook Happen? If the clubface is dramatically closed relative to your swing path when you contact the ball, you are going to hit a snap hook. For a right-handed golfer, that means the face is pointing significantly to the left of the path that the club is taking as it moves through impact.
Should I set my driver to draw?
Draw-bias designs also encourage a straighter ball flight by featuring higher lofts, lighter shafts and more upright lie angles. There’s even evidence that with the CG closer to the heel, draw drivers help average golfers return the face to square at impact because the CG is closer to the shaft.

What is the key to hitting a draw?
To hit the draw, the ball needs to start to the right of your target. Your feet should be squared up to the target, and shoulders should be aligned with your feet. It is also important to close the club face just a tiny bit. The key to hitting your target is to swing along the path of your feet and arms.
