Shot shape, what does your course favour ?

[ruff-driver]

Our course suits a faded tee shot on most of the holes,

Unfortunately i draw it so very rarely visit the right side of the course

How does yours suit you ?

 

[Norrin Radd]

definitely a faders track ,most big trouble is down the left.

Lee park has a mix of draw and fade holes. overall it would be best to hit a fade as you can fade away from most out of bounds. no good when you start hitting pulls though. :rofl:

 

[upsidedown]

Mine works 5 fades, 5 draws and 4 straight

Hack out of the trees works well at sunny Rawdon.

 

[Crow]

Our first 8 holes have OB right, to a greater or lesser extent, so definitely a course for the drawer of the ball, unless you're left handed.

 

[nickjdavis]

Straight.

 

[Fish]

My course has 5 draws, 3 fades & 6 straight drives, 3 of those straights benefit from a baby draw as they favour the left side of the fairway, I'd say my course generally suits me 🤔

 

[Imurg]

5 draws, 4 fades and 3 straights but none of them would punish a straight shot with the exception of the 6th which definitely favours the left side.
Most OB is well off line, its trees and roughnthat need to be avoided.

 

[Leereed]

1 a Defo fade 10 straight 7 draws. But as said if you hit it straight you would be fine on every hole.

 

[NWJocko]

My place is very much set up for a fade off the tee.

Just a shame that my "fade" is either a soft draw or a 40 yard slice off the planet and nothing in between!!

 

[chrisd]

Mine would probably suit a gentle draw but is tree lined on most holes and narrow

 

[Oddsocks]

90% of holes favour a draw, when my swing migrated in the autum of 2014 i inherited a fade.... It's sucks!

 

[dougajmcdonald]

Ours generally suits a fade (I made this comment to a friend the other day as he hadn't noticed). But we have 4 9's and one of them suits a draw,

In general it's not a tight course, so you can get away with a lot!

 

[turkish]

Mainly all draw is suited at ours. Don't think there's any OOB on the left but a fair whack on the right. And even non OOB holes there's a fair bit of danger

Being able to shape the ball both ways helps. Obviously, just hitting in a straight line will get the job done...but length and shape will definitely help

 

[JohnnyDee]

As a right-hander then our place, on balance, will reward a soft draw marginally more than a fade as a rule of thumb.

We don't have any severe dog-legs so the straight ball off the tee won't hurt either.

 

[Lump]

Never really get this, yes holes might move one way or another. But as long as you can hit your preferred shape consistently then does it matter what the hole "requires"?

 

[richart]

Three holes, 3,10 and 11 favour a fade. One hole the 2nd favours a draw, the rest can be played with either, but straight is best. My mate plays with a high draw and he rarely misses a fairway, and opens up a lot of greens for his second shot. Very few holes can be played with a hook or slice.

Faders track at our place. Big trouble bunker wise and water wise down the left. Luckily I hit a fade and have never really hit a draw apart from the odd mishit
