How to fix an unintended draw?
I had this problem at the end of last year and now it's carried over to this year as well.
Every club from driver to PW, I have an unintended draw that carries my ball between 10-20 yards left of where I'm aiming (I'm a righty). One thing I've noticed about my swing that creates more of the draw, is that the arc of my swing (if viewed from the top of my head, down) as it comes into the ball, is a very steep arc. Hope that makes sense.
I really don't know how to fix this though, so I'm looking for tips. At least I'm consistent with my inaccuracy but it's still frustrating.

Mt recomendation to you would be to check your swing using the PGA method.
POSITION: check the ball position and make sure it's right for you. If you're standing too close or too far away from the ball, it could put your swing all out of sorts.
GRIP: Make sure you have a good grip. Don't grip too firmly, this will lend itself to not much wrist action and will make your shots go offline.
ALIGNMENT: This is the one i think you really have issues with. Just because it "feels" square, doesn't mean it IS square. Check your foot alignment and your club face alignment. Your feet, knees, hips, and shoulders should all be square and parallel to the target line. As should your swing path. I'll wager your feet are a touch closed and your swing path goes from inside out, causing the ball to draw.
Check all these and fix the one that needs fixing.
