Depends on a couple things but usually its if Im fighting the urge to be a hooker. If Im hookin then Im towards the left side so I have more fairway to work with.

As a lefty who plays a fade, and whos miss is a push left I line up to the right side of the fairway, I never miss right so I a hit it straight I will be down the right side of the fairway, fade or push and I'm just fine.

Depends on whether my ball is fading or drawing, it's up to the swing.

+2. Each hole for me is different. A lot has to factor in.

You pick your driving angle based on the layout of the hole and how the shot will be shaped.

+1 Here in Washington I play some tough courses that have tons of trees and bend alot. So it always depends on which way the hole go's.

I understand that, but how is that different than setting up on the same side as trouble?

I'm a lefty. Say I'm playing a dogleg left with a pond on the right where the hole turns left. I most likely would tee the ball up on the left side of the tee box, aim toward or along that pond, and fade it into the corner. if I tee it up on the same side as the pond/trouble and hit a cut it may end up off the hole to the right. Sometimes you can take trouble out of a hole by aiming at it, or at least in the general direction, and trust the shape of the shot and the hole.

I see what you're saying, I see the dogleg as trouble as well, in that case you're right I would choose the lesser of two evils. Most holes I play the inside of the dog leg is usually where the trouble lies.

I agree and would add it also depends on where on the tee box gives me the best chance to hit the shot to succeed on that particular hole.

Usually right side and aim a little left to minimize my slice.

Well I'll chime in to. For me it depends on the club of choice as much as the lay out of the hole. My driver shot shape is a fade so I'm usually on the right side of the tee box. Par three's I tend to set up on the side that leaves the best angle to the pin. Woods & hybrids from the tee box depends on the shape of the hole.

It depends on the layout of the hole, the location of any trouble, the wind, the swing tendancy for the day, etc...
