Today we’re going to master the controlled fade — learning to tone down your slice into a reliable, repeatable shot shape that you can trust on every hole.
We’ll also continue practicing Hogan’s powerful strategy of eliminating one side of the golf course. This single concept allows you to avoid trouble areas and play the safer side of every hole with confidence.
Using this strategy can improve your margin for error by 100%. Here’s how the math works: imagine you’re hitting a shot straight down the middle to a fairway that’s 20 yards wide.

If you play a dead-straight shot, you can miss up to 10 yards to the right — a very small fade — or 10 yards to the left — a very small draw. That’s not much room to work with. You’d have to hit the ball remarkably straight.
The solution is to learn to shape the ball intentionally and eliminate one entire side of the course from consideration.
