Couples and Trevino good examples of aim left/swing left?
How can we incorporate this int o our own swings if we do not have a trackman?

From what i can tell both aim left and swing right and play an intentional push to push fade most of the time.

If you want to see the "aim left swing left" example on tour; just watch i'd say 90% of tour pros hit a short iron, they will be aimed more left of the flag than you'd think
 
Agree with assessment of Trevino--he was probably hitting down through the whole bag and had a built-in down and out true path that made hitting both the fade and the draw pretty easy (based on position of clubface). He's pretty much explained it this way.

Couples may hit some shots this way (shorter irons), but his tee ball is a different animal than Lee Buck's. If he's catching it on the upswing with the path going up and left, and staying just left of the face, it would mean he aims less left and hits more of a "power" fade. I think this is more the type of fade Nickloss hit and some of the longer dudes today.

I find it easier to hit draws if I'm catching it slightly on the upswing. Is my assessment of "power" fades correct? Anybody here bringing the thunder hitting cuts by catching it past low point? Where's your ball position?

Ok, let's try this: Any thoughts/comments on hitting a fade while hitting up? This is in somebody's wheelhouse, yes?

Ball position for this? Cheers.

(Sorry to jack the thread mates, but it seemed like it needed a boost.)

Burners,

This comes from Seve. He called it a power fade..

1) Ball further forward than normal and tee it high..

2) Weaken grip...

3) Stay behind it at impact...

4) Hit it HARD.......:)
