i only shank when im tired or hungover and dont focus on the ball enough.
Thats not a euphemism.
I can’t say for hungover, but definitely when I’m not concentrating or rushing my shots.
From my own experience, “it” happens when the shaft is too flat and too behind.
I had the same problem. It drove me mad. My solution: back on plane, not to much to the inside. But what helped most was squaring the clubface at impact. I tried everything. I was overcomplicating the shot. In was leaving the club face wide open through impact. Went back to basics. Correct grip, balanced, back and down on plane, square club face through impact. Hope this helps.
i do the same thing – blade wide open . how to you get is square at impact?
my shanks often come from fear of shanks.Vicious circle,you have to attack the ball fiercly,and it will stop.
Thanks, happens to me occasionally when the ball is below my feet.
Yes Ryan this happens too me also! Just moved too a new club with lots more uneven fairways. Should we have a different set up mark?
Great advice Mark, shanks a million
This isn’t a fix for everyone I guess, but try lifting your hands slightly higher at address. I had horrible shanks for about a month. When I checked on film I had really low hands on small pitch shots and when I raised my hands slightly it gave my hands room in front of my legs to swing through. If your legs are in the way of your hands coming into impact your hands will just move forward of the ball so you don’t hit your legs. It INSTANTLY fix my ssssssshanks! Just my ten pennies.
I like this pitch shot advice: Hit it with your chest.
Hi Leslie. Try to strengthen left hand. Will help to square club through impact. Start with short chips. Squaring the clubface. Slowly make swing longer. Focus on squaring club face the rest will come Naturally.
Back to basics. Good grip/ setup, balanced, good distance from ball, swing on plane, eye on ball, follow through to balanced finish. Think smooth & square square square.
Hope this helps. Good luck.
Sounds like great advice Mark. Keep It Simple Stupid. KISS method is my fav. It doesn’t have to be complex.
I went out to the range and practiced on keeping my shafts parallel on the downswing starting with my driver. All went rather well and I felt good about the practice session until I hit my SW and it was SHANK after SHANK after SHANK… I’m not sure what I did wrong but looking back I felt in the hamstrings and I think that’s what was forcing me to early extend in the downswing.
Been suffering from pitch shot shanks all week.. this video has cured it.. Thanks a lot Mark 🙂
good video please I don’t want you to think im trying to be clever but ive suffered from shanks since I started still have them now but on these three quarter shots you should concider are you just swinging your arms and not turning your shoulders this was one of my faults so make sure you start your swing with your shoulders hope this helps someone all the best
Fun video. Looking forward to trying this out on the driving range.
Mark. Thank you so much. I have been suffering from the dreaded Hosel Rockets for a month. Every video I have watched talked about stance swing plane release ball position etc etc etc. your take on impact and feeling were the club face is makes total sense to me. Shanks are under control now. Still a bit close to hosel on some shots but getting much more controlled strikes. Many more center hits. Again thank you so much!
That intro was hilarious. Don’t say that word!!!!
Good information
Best Tip for shank! – I had suffer about shank (Full Shot / Chip Shot). I watch a lot of YouTube Lessons and Pactice But It not working at all until i watch this Tip. Now Shank has gone!
Thank You So Much Mark
Many thanks, I have been researching “perfect putting machine” for a while now, and I think this has helped. Ever heard of – Graysonyon Putter Prolific – (Have a quick look on google cant remember the place now ) ? Ive heard some interesting things about it and my m8 got great success with it.
I’ve always found that simply standing farther away from the ball works very well. The problem is your coming over the the top and catching the hozel not the center of the club. So try just standing and inch or so away from the ball.
In my experience I have found that the distance I stand from the ball makes the most difference. I typed in how to stop shanking pitch shots in the search bar because I could not find what i was actually looking for. Turns out i have been standing too far away (??? Counter intuitive I know) and reaching out a bit and then slashing back across the ball, causing what looks very much like a shank. A wedge is a very short club after all and I personally think a lot of people just do not have a steep enough angle of attack and are not actually shanking but really doing this slicing across thing. Then they think oh s@#$t I’m too close and try to move further away still, which just makes it worse. I personally believe that’s why people say ” I was at the range and it was just shank after shank after shank “, because their ‘remedy’ just makes it worse. What do you think?
Pin your your elbows to your sides and relax your grip to very light. It’s the club getting too far away from your body. Even the left elbow close to ones body works great. It will also make you turn towards the target
Also, don’t decelerate and lazy through the ball. Being cute doesn’t work either
Well we are all watching this video for a reason
We suck at golf
Good advice 👍
