How to hit a draw in Golf

42 free video tutorials, each tagged by level

What coaches agree on

  • Send the club path out to the right of your target, and keep the clubface closed relative to that path - that combination is what curves the ball from right to left.
  • The simplest, most reliable way to build this in is at address - aim your body a little right of target and preset the clubface before you swing.
Show more
  • Practice with small, slow, exaggerated swings on the range until you can feel the curve, then gradually bring it back to a normal, full-speed swing.

Common mistakes

  • Forcing the draw with a big body compensation, such as thrusting the hips early, or an exaggerated, flipped clubface produces a big, inconsistent hook or pull, not a controllable draw.

The ABSOLUTE Beginner’s Guide To Hitting A Draw (Live Lesson)

How To Hit a Draw on Command | Control Curve & Path (Inside The M-System)

Reviewer Excellent, structured, and genuinely practice-able -- top of the pile for this skill.

Moderator This is a deliberate practice system for controlling curve and path -- literally has the player hit balls that curve left, right, and straight on command, then combines path and face specifically to produce a draw. About as squarely on-topic as it gets.

GOLF: How To Hit A Draw

Reviewer Teaches the actual cause of a draw, not just a stance tweak - send this to someone who wants to understand it.

Moderator This is THE draw lesson - the whole thing is built around clubface-to-path relationship, with every subsection (grip, backswing, downswing) tied directly back to how it affects face-to-path for a draw.

How To Hit A Draw | Follow Through

Reviewer Explains the why, not just the what - good stuff on shaping the shot with your finish.

Moderator 100% on-topic - this is specifically the follow-through piece of hitting a draw, explained as one of the levers (along with wrist/shaft angle) that controls curvature. No drift into other subjects.

THE MASTERS | HOW TO HIT THE DRAW SHOT

Reviewer Clear framework, honest about it being the easy-mode version of the shot.

Moderator Masters hook is just the intro; the actual content is squarely the three-part draw recipe (center strike, path right, face between path and target) applied to a real approach shot.

How To Hit A DRAW With Your IRONS - Simple Method

Reviewer Explains the why, not just the what -- solid stuff if you already know your way around a swing.

Moderator Nothing but draw mechanics for irons start to finish -- ball back, weight forward, handle ahead, then ties it straight into why an earlier strike point drives an in-to-out path. Zero filler, zero tangents. This is the sub-skill, full stop.

Moderator Squarely about producing a draw (and fade) -- uses alignment sticks to show foot line versus face line and how swinging along the foot line curves the ball.

Reviewer Great drill -- the alignment sticks make the path/face idea click.

HOW TO HIT A DRAW WITH YOUR IRONS

Reviewer Actually accounts for different bodies instead of insisting on one right way to do it.

Moderator Also entirely about hitting a draw with irons, this time framed around the range of options (ball position vs address vs feel) for producing it depending on your own body and flexibility.

Reviewer Draws a clear line between the quick trick and the real, repeatable version of the shot.

How to Hit a DRAW and FADE (the best way)

Reviewer The two-stick drill actually lets you feel the face/path difference instead of just hearing about it.

Moderator Draw is the first and more thoroughly worked example in the video - face vs path, aim body right of a right-aiming face - before it mirrors the same logic for a fade. It's not just a mention, it's a full worked drill.

How to Hit a Draw with Irons the Easy Way

Reviewer Two specific setup tweaks with real before/after shots - minus a plug for his paid program.

Moderator Framed as a slice fix, but the fix IS learning to draw the ball - arm position and stance are specifically about producing an in-to-out path, which is the sub-skill.

How to Hit Fade and Draw Shots in Golf EASY Method

Reviewer Live student demo that actually draws the ball - and a good two-variable mental model to boot.

Moderator First half is squarely a draw/hook lesson - closed stance, closed face, swing along the foot line, with a live before/after demo that actually works. It then pivots into teaching the fade too, which drifts off this specific sub-skill for the back half.

GOLF: How To Make The Perfect Backswing - Hand Path (The Starting Point To Hitting A Draw)

Reviewer Good explanation of 'depth' with a checkpoint you can actually use on video.

Moderator Framed explicitly as the starting point for the draw and ties backswing depth directly to shallowing the path, but a lot of this excerpt is generic 'depth is good for everyone' backswing content that would apply to any shot shape, not draw specifically.

HIT DRAWS AND FADES WITH THIS SIMPLE GOLF DRILL

Reviewer Weird looking drill, real underlying lesson -- worth trying on the range.

Moderator Draw and fade get roughly equal billing via a shared drill -- genuinely useful for draw specifically (the whole 'weight forward, hit it earlier in the arc' section is squarely about producing a draw), but I can't call the whole video about the draw when half of it is written for the slicer wanting a fade.

Reviewer Good mental model (the bowling lane) once you get past the intro - just takes a while to arrive.

GOLF: How To Hit A Draw With A Driver

Reviewer Real tips in here, just wade through the rangefinder ad to get to them.

Moderator This is a real draw-with-driver lesson end to end - setup checkpoints (ball position, side tilt, trail shoulder, forearm, handle height) all aimed at getting the club to shallow and come from the inside, which is exactly the draw mechanism. Stays on topic the whole clip.

Intermediate
How to Hit A Draw Every Time | Easy and Effective

Reviewer Solid technical content on hip sequencing, just don't expect it to explicitly teach you to draw the ball.

Moderator This is billed as a draw lesson but the actual content is a coach-to-coach breakdown of hip sequencing to stop a slice -- same underlying mechanism as a draw (path/face relationship) but never explicitly connects it to shot-shaping a draw on command. It's in the neighborhood, not a bullseye.

[ DRAW FUNDAMENTALS ] Key considerations for executing a push ...

Reviewer Interesting point on a common myth, but hard to follow without seeing the demo.

Moderator On topic -- it's specifically about draw fundamentals, tackling the common belief that you have to aim right to hit one. But it's a lesson snippet with a lot of back-and-forth, so it reads more like a fragment of a longer conversation than a self-contained explanation.

How to Hit a Draw in Golf — Step‑by‑Step Swing Tips | TikTok

Reviewer Smart strategic insight on drawing it into the wind, but assumes you can already hit the shot.

Moderator It's about draws, but mostly through the lens of ball flight and spin management in the wind rather than how to physically produce one -- comes up alongside fade comparisons, wind strategy, swing length.

1.9

Intermediate
How to hit a Draw or Fade

Reviewer Confirms the ball-flight law with real numbers, but doesn't teach you how to do it yourself.

Moderator Half the clip is fade, not draw -- it's a compare-and-contrast demo, not a draw lesson. Still directly on-topic for the draw half, so this isn't tangential, but it's not squarely 'about' the draw either.

Reviewer Sells you on why a draw is useful, but I don't see the technique itself explained here.

Reviewer Interesting to hear from Rory, but there's nothing here you can actually take to the range.
