A ‘draw’ describes the flight path of a golf shot where the golf ball curves from right to left for a right-handed golfer. It is a more controlled version of a hook. Unlike hooks, draws are often played intentionally. For example, if the front of a green is guarded by a bunker on the left side, a golfer can aim a little out to the right and “draw the ball” back to the left, thus avoiding having to play over the bunker.
