A fade, a shot that curves left-to-right for a right-handed golfer, is a great tool to have in your arsenal. It allows you to curve your ball around trouble, attack tucked pins and hit higher shots that...land softly. In this video, Titleist staff member Mark Blackburn shows how to hit a functional fade. By implementing Mark's adjustments to your setup, backswing and delivery into the ball, you'll be able to create to an out-to-in swing path. By keeping your club face slightly open to this path, your golf ball will start left of your target and curve back to the right in a controlled and predictable way.
