  There is no DRAW & FADE in WGT, there is Hook & Slice.

   

  Exactly! 

  The ONLY way to play a draw or fade is to close or open the club face and you can't do that on here.

  What do you gentlemen call the shot below? I aimed straight down the fairway and as you can see there is a left to right wind, if that is a hook then ok you win..

  I learnt how to do this from the thread below and you can disagree til you are blue in the face but I call it a draw, end of story..

  This is as close to a draw as you are going to get, It will get you around the tree's at BPB # 2 and it certainly is no HOOK!!!

  Your right Liz, it does take a bit of practice, but you can do it. First few times I attempted that it was very Ugly!! lol

  You hooked it against the wind to ride the wind.

  You can do that on your BP#2 if you want as well.

  Try Hook or Slice INTO/ WITH the wind to get around corners as well.
  Like this from one of WGT's best. Who also unfortunately refers to the shot as a draw.

  there is no Draw and Fade in WGT,  if the thread you quote feels thats what they are doing then thats fine.

  Lookie here: http://www.wgt.com/forums/t/77241.aspx   

  There are also threads on Chipping on the green and other anomolies.

  From your own thread you quote.

  "to a point"

  As long as thats what you want to call it then you can rest assured thats what you are doing.

  One day when WGT actually Implement Draw and Fade, perhaps then will you see the difference.

  Other Golf games had Draw and Fade and you could draw and fade against hooks and slices.  

  One day we might have Draw & Fade here too.

  Crikey they are still trying to get Uneven Lies right let alone club face options :)

  Actually there is no hook or slice here either for the same reason that you can't draw or fade. What we do is a controlled or semi controlled pull or push. 

  Not actually correct. In real life you can draw or fade a ball with a square chub face with a slight grip change or a slight swing path change. But you can't do either or those  here either.

  What I would call that is an intentional controlled pull.

  Of course having a stronger grip will produce a draw but this will in effect slightly close the the club face at impact.

  With a draw (or fade) we are talking about a shot that starts off straight and gently curves due to side spin. It has been rightly pointed out we can't do this on here.

  every time i hit the ball early or late it starts in a straight line either left or right of aim point  that is not a draw or fade  it is a pull or push  draws and fades continue to curve unless in  to the wind   they never stay on a straight lne                                                       

  one thing i would like to know   isit possible to delete multiple friends at the same time instead of one by one   it take way too long todo it that way

  It can only be done one by one.
