Shot Shapes

Straight. Draw. Fade.

Pre-mark the target shaft before you use this page. Only the centre arrives marked — that is the pivot, not ball position. Every club needs its own mark from that centre (white Sharpie supplied). If the shaft is still unmarked, go to How it works first and do Marking the shaft. Then come back.

Once the marks are on: slide the housing to the club, set laser 3 on the ball, click the shape. The main shaft is the target. The rotator sets the feet. Square is the first click. Each further click is 5° — open for fade, closed for draw. Face stays on laser 3. Path follows the feet.

Straight — the foundation

Line up square with irons, woods or driver. Start with a wedge — it is the easiest club to learn with.

1. 01

   Set the pivot housing to the centreline mark on the main shaft, so the rotator shaft sits perpendicular to the target shaft. Lasers 1 and 2 are then parallel to the main shaft (first click / straight-shot setting).

2. 02

   Place the device on the ground so the main shaft points at your target (flag or fairway centre) and is at least 200 mm from the ball.

3. 03

   Slide the housing to the mark you made for that club, until laser 3 dots the left-right centre of the ball. For tee shots: place the device first, then the ball on laser 3. Laser 3 is angled slightly down (about 5°) so it never hits you.

4. 04

   Set up so laser 1 hits the same spot on your right shoe and laser 2 the same spot on your left (0 clicks = perpendicular = square to target).

5. 05

   Check lasers 4 and 5 hit the same position on each toe — shoulder-width confirmed.

6. 06

   Square the clubface to laser 3 (your true target line). Grip, waggle, swing along your feet line and the main shaft.

Master this first. Everything else builds from here. Left-handed: swap the shoes — laser 1 left, laser 2 right.

Draw — right-to-left (right-handed)

Face stays on the target. Feet close. Start with one click (5°). Add clicks to taste.

1. 01

   Set up exactly as for a straight shot: main shaft at the target, housing on that club’s mark, laser 3 on the centre of the ball.

2. 02

   Twist the rotator housing left (closes the stance). One click is 5°. Start there. Two to four clicks if you want more curve.

3. 03

   Lasers 1 and 2 still hit the same spots on the shoes — but the feet line now aims right of the target.

4. 04

   Lasers 4 and 5 stay even on the toes. Width does not change.

5. 05

   Square the clubface to laser 3 (still at the target — not at your feet). Swing along the feet line (in-to-out relative to the face).

Too much twist is a hook — dial it back and mark your number. Left-handed: twist the rotator right. Feet aim left of the target.

Fade — left-to-right (right-handed)

Face stays on the target. Feet open. One click (5°) to start.

1. 01

   Set up exactly as for a straight shot: main shaft at the target, housing on that club’s mark, laser 3 on the centre of the ball.

2. 02

   Twist the rotator housing right (opens the stance). One click is 5°. Start there. Add clicks if you want more curve.

3. 03

   Lasers 1 and 2 still hit the same spots on the shoes — but the feet line now aims left of the target.

4. 04

   Lasers 4 and 5 stay even on the toes. Width does not change.

5. 05

   Square the clubface to laser 3 (at the target — not the feet). Swing along the feet line (out-to-in relative to the face).

Too many clicks is a slice — reduce and mark your fade. Left-handed: twist the rotator left. Feet aim right of the target.
