Now let's talk through the different patterns that you want to be seeing within your mule swing to actually produce these different shots. Now I’ve got a bit of a diagram set up to mostly try and help me explain this. But hopefully it should be pretty much straight forward. Now what I've done here is I've got my alignment stick pointing straight down to my target which indicates my target line. And I've got an arc which represents a draw and an arc here which represents a fade. Now first of all let's talk about the fade shape and what you want to be seeing as far as the actual path and face angle are concerned.

So when you're trying to play a fade shot, you want to be moving off to the left-hand side of the target and then fading it background so it finishes on target. Now the easiest way to change paths presuming that you're swinging with a relatively straight path already is to get the body aiming off to the left-hand side. So it's not parallel to target line. It’s aiming off to the left-hand side. Now what that will do, it will allow the path to travel out to in, in relation to the target line and actually get the ball starting off to the left-hand side.

So as that club moves from out to in, it passes across the target line and then starts to move off to the left. Now if my path was moving in this direction in my face, club face was also pointing in that direction, I just hit a straight pull shot. So what I need to make sure is as I'm coming through the ball, that that club face is set slightly open to my path. So as the club moves out to in, as the club face is open to the path, the ball will start left. But then it will curve back around to the right hand side. If my club face was open to my target line with that path that would be your slice. So if you are hitting the slice that is what you are doing.

And an easy way to practice this is just to get yourself set up in this manner, make sure that club face is slightly open to where you are aiming. But still slightly closed to target line and then just practice hitting shots moving the club from out to in and trying to get that curve from the left to the right. Now with the draw, it’s simply just the opposite. So it’s getting yourself set up, so your body aim is aiming slightly off to the right of the target. Getting that club, so it's pointing in between your desired path, so from in to out and the target line.

And if you're moving it from the in to the out with that club face slightly closed to path, it’s still open to the actual target you are going to be getting that nice draw shape. Now a stray shot, the mythical stray shot is when you're getting set up, club face straight down the target line. Body aimed straight down the target line. Your path is coming in very, very neutral. Club face is square to target. And it’s taking off super straight as well. Well those are the shot patterns that you can see and those are the different paths and club face angles that you need to have if you want to shape your shots.
