Entry level players usually start with a big ol slice. Which as they get better, may turn into a gentle fade. Better players are able to hit a draw, and a lot try to do so as it seems to give more distance. A fade balloons up into the air and lands soft, a draw bores low, then turns over and hits the ground and runs. Then as players get really good, they have the distance, so go back to hitting a high gentle fade to control what happens when ball lands. Hitting it dead straight every time is also good, but hard to do on a consistent basis.
One of worst faults that can plague a guy is when they can only hit duck hooks, which is a violent, out of control draw. I have seen guys who could play and score remarkably well hitting a big high 30 yard slice. It was predictable.......so they went with it. Never have seen anyone play well with a big duck hook.
Easy to vote your way into socialism, but impossible to vote your way out of it.

My brothers are really into golf, me, not so much. I go 5-6 times a year to hang out with the boys. When I started I had a slice so bad I had to duck after I swung because I was afraid the ball would come back and hit me in the back of the head. Brothers have taught me enough now to usually be to keep it straight enough to find. Kind of miss getting to go treasure hunting in the woods every hole (as long as nobody was playing behind us) did find a brand new sim2 driver head in the woods one time. Literally looked like the guy swung it one time, got mad and chucked it in the woods. Younger brother still uses it.
