surely it depends on the way the clubface is pointing at impact relative to the swing arc

I think assume it's square to path

Just stick with the names 1-5. They're only golf shots.

Subject to reasonable clubface angles (not going to be leaving the thing open that far!)...
1. Pull-fade (out-to-in path, clubface closed to target)
2. Push-fade (straight path, clubface square or open to target)
3. Draw (in-to-out path, clubface open to target, clubface closed to path)
4. Straight-push (in-to-out path, clubface open to target, clubface matches path)
5. Push-hook (huge in-to-out path, clubface open to target, clubface closed to path)
The point of the post was to show how ball position can affect ball flight. It's hard to hit a pull-fade off the back foot (the swingpath is acutely in-to-out at that point) and likewise a push-hook off the front foot is equally as difficult (swingpath isn't in-to-out at all).
Learning about what does what and why can help your game, although mastering ONE position is a good start
I think Homer has mastered No5

HAD MASTERED. My new swing is chugging along quite nicely. Didn't hit it great at the range tonight but even the really bad ones were going to be far more playable than the ones of old. Thought you were a bit of a Doris myself
