    The Art of Never Fighting Your Fade

    Best quote from The Art of Never Fighting Your Fade

    “

    The flaw might be in the mindset, not the shot shape itself. When golfers finally accept their fade and start working with it instead of against it, it shifts from being a technical problem to being a tactical advantage.
