How many of these shot shapes can you perform?

I could maybe hit all those shapes on a good day but I'm normally varying flight more than shape. I don't often try anything other than a 10-15 yard draw or cut off the tee. Most of my iron shots I won't move right or left more that 5-6 yards.
 
All of them, at any given time, not on purpose!
 
Intentionally? Some.
Unintentionally? All.
 
I have hit all of them, but usually unintended. 3/6 is usually shot depending on club. Would like to get 7 as my stock shot.
 
all, and probably some not included like a stab wedge for example
 
Fade and I can hook or slice a ball out of the woods like it's my job.
 
1, 9, 2, 8, are my mistake shots. Doesn't happen very often but they show up. The rest I can play when I want.
 
I've seen this chart many times. I'm sure I've hit them all at one time or another, mostly by accident probably. Can usually pull off a few on demand, but prefer to just hit straight if possible.

I realize all of these are options based on swing and club direction, but are they all shots people need to have? Don't think I've ever thought that I need to hit a pull or a push draw, etc. Sure they happen, but definitely never by design. If I want to hit a ball straight and a bit to the left, I'll just aim that way. Have never thought that I wanted to specifically hit a pull.
 
3, 5, and 6 are the most common with the occasional 2 or 9 creeping in. As far as doing any of it in purpose...that's out of the question. I'm always trying to to hit it straight, and aiming to compensate for a straight fade (which is what I most commonly get).
 
all of them but never on purpose...except for a slice, used to be able to do that on command.

Say someone is over the top and just cant fix their path but need to hit a straight ball. Much easier to aim a few degrees right take your normal over the top swing but close the club a touch to get the path and face aligned so it looks straight but is really a straight pull while aiming right.

With a push draw if someone is coming way from the inside and play for the club face to be square to the target line the ball will be moving a ton left, more than you might want so opening the club face a bit with out changing the path makes it much more of a controlled draw.

Those are just my opinions though.

Yeah, same here. I don't really see 2 and 8 as viable shots but just mistakes. 1 and 9 could be used for something i guess like a big slice or hook around a tree. But I don't see a straight push or pull as an on purpose shot at all.
