Open club face? or Outside-In swing? When talking about a slice/fade, would these two "scenarios" be similar to each other? or does each one have a different shot type?
I'm thinking that a outside-in swing would produce a more "controlled" fade, maybe starting a bit left and then moving back right.
On the other hand, it seems like an open club face at impact would maybe start ...

the ball flight can tell you a lot about what is happening at impact.
The direction the ball starts out on is a result of the swing path.
the direction the ball ends up is a result of the club face

if it starts out toward teh right but doesn't come back, then the club face is not closed so yes, you need to roll your arms more to close the club. Experiment with ball placement, it may help

I had a request to tell how I play a fade or a draw. Again, I didn't invent this, I got this from Tiger. For me it is mostly in the setup. To hit my draw.

Now I take my normal grip (my grip looks normal to my stance, not the club face, the club face looks ...

It wasn't me who shot the 2 under, it was a pro who played on the mini tours, but he didn't play from the tips, he played from the same tees I do. The best I have managed at this course is 2 over on each nine, but not at the same time
