Stop aiming left when trying to hit a fade, Instead use your feet to shape your shots!

Fraser Golf Institute explains why aiming excessively to the left to hit a fade often backfires by distorting your pressure shift and club path. Rather than opening your aim drastically offline, they demonstrate how aiming squarely down the fairway while adjusting foot stance bias allows you to shape the ball with far greater control.

• Avoid aiming wide left when trying to hit a fade, as extreme open alignments can corrupt natural weight pressure shifts.
• Aiming too far left often causes golfers to drop the club 'underneath' on the downswing, leading to pushed or blocked shots into trouble.
• Aim squarely down the center of your target line and rely on foot pressure bias to shape your shot predictably.
• Maintaining a square alignment keeps your start line under control even if the clubface opens slightly at impact.
