Yeah, I really still wish I still hit the ball that way. I wish I had never "fixed my swing" as many people see it, but unfortunately I have never found a way to get back to that type of shot. Now that I hit what many see as a better shot I am far more likely to hook the ball into trouble than I would slice it when I had my old shot.

Although I believe my problem as much if not more a result of a change in swing path. When I initially fixed the fade mentioned I hit the ball relatively straight. When I worked a little on my swing path and grooved that inside~out swing to try and add distance is when my troubles really started.
