What have you found in longer wedges and short irons that makes them tend to fade more? For me it's a heavier shaft weight is all that seems to help so far. I would like to tinker more this season though.

Flatten the lie angle a degree.

That's definitely something I was going to try. I think when the ball really goes left a lot of it is turf interaction.

Weaker grip will also help.

Lie angle can certainly affect start direction and shot shape, but it's not because of turf interaction. Hopefully you are hitting the little golf ball before the big earth ball.
 
Funny post. Today my wedges were drawing more than I tend to like.
