Finding the other side

This is IMO a good way to discover the draw.

It is very close to how I think the shot when I don't trust my swing 100% and want to be 100% certain of getting a push draw with the driver.

This is also pretty close to what I did when I killed my slice several years ago. The other ting I did was to use a stronger grip. I keept on strengthen it until a slice was impossible. That got the good spiral going for me. It's amazing how easy it becomes to hige the club late in the down stroke when you feel like you don't have to do it in order to square up the club face. Eventually I developed a hook and had to go in the other direction to find new middle ground.

One thing that is likely to happen when you find the draw is that your release will become gradually more efficient. Because you don't have to force it anymore. And when you get a more efficient release you may have to reverse a couple of things slightly to avoid a snap hook, just like I dit. But I think it is necessary to visit the other side to establish a compensation free impact as the middle ground.
