Myth: A club face square to the target causes the golf ball to fly straight.
Fact: A club face square to the path will cause the golf ball to fly without curve (left, right or straight). It has nothing to do with the target line unless the golf club is traveling at the target at impact. This is rarely the case, perhaps a 3-wood off the ground occasionally.
Myth: A draw is hit with the club face closed to the target. A fade is hit with the club face open to the target.
Fact: The golf ball starts in the direction of the face and curves away from the path. So if you want to play a true right to left draw, the face should be open (pointing right of target) and the path should be in to out of where the face is pointing. Just the opposite for a fade.
