Definition
A ball flight pattern where the shot travels straight but to the left of the intended target for right-handed golfers, typically caused by an outside-in swing path with a square club face at impact or misalignment at address. Pull shots maintain distance but miss directionally, often leading to trouble areas or difficult recovery positions. Common causes include improper alignment, over-the-top swing moves, or excessive upper body rotation. While pulls can be frustrating, they're often easier to correct than shots with curve patterns. Understanding pull causes helps golfers make appropriate swing and setup adjustments.
