A club with the “draw” design has it’s clubface angled slightly inward (toe forward).  The angled clubface is meant to counteract a golfers tendency to slice or push the ball.  A ball slices from excess left to right spin, caused by an outside to inside swing path.  Because of the clubhead angle, the “draw” tends to put  right to left spin on the ball which counteracts the slice.

Many players are not inclined to use the new design, however those that do use this modified club, swear by them.
