Never Shank The Golf Ball Again - 3 Simple Steps

[@charliecampbell5130]

Shanking moved my handicap from 9 to 16 in the last 30 days. I tried the "wristwatch face" drill this afternoon first in practice and then played 9 holes. Not one shank. I was ready to quit golf but thank Goodness I watched your video! I am pumped. Thanks

[@ericindovina9680]

Thank you. Watched over 10 “How to Fix shanks” videos. Your drills resonated the best.

[@Rotaryswing]

Glad to hear it!

[@davidgreener2070]

Started shanking one day and nearly went out of my mind trying to get back on track. Nothing was working until I watched your video. It all made sense. The very next day at the range - cured! The best video treatment of the shank I have ever seen.

[@jonhigginbotham7574]

Four weeks of frustration and one week staying away from golf until I watched this video. Two days on the range working these tips and today I shot three over par. Thanks!!!

jon higginbotham Nice man👍🏻🙌🏻

[@BigEd0071]

Been trying to cure my shanks in the last year and a half. Started using the “glove technique” and I haven’t hit a shank since. I owe my life to you, sir.

[@prefect9777]

Excellent routine, it has helped me enormously

[@headlesssoldier]

Dude! Your face rotation drill has changed my life. I used to shank so bad I would play rounds with all trouble woods and a wedge. Through the years, I discovered that I have a jumpy right knee. I figured out how it should move years ago. (I think right inner thigh into my left leg if my body isn't moving the right way). Anyway, I was kind of a hold off move guy and never released the club so naturally. As you say...lol...I am well into doing thousands of rehearsals with your drill. It helps me marry the turn to my arms. I go to the range. Do one rehearsal, hit one. Works extremely well with my swing. I do a one plane, single plain, rotational....whatever you call it. The guy who taught it to me calls it linear force. The thing I love about it is it gets me into that place of having really soft arms and that fully left finish with high hands. Thats comes and goes with me. This seems to be solving my release problem. Great stuff

[@karencop6226]

you FIXED MY SHANK! thank you so much. I was so frustrated with my swing as a 10 handicapper out shanking EVERY IRON! I was so confused until i tried the drill with the wrist rotation. I finally have my swing back and i’m having a blast out on the course now. Thank you! Subscribed and liked 👌🏻

[@azrieffmohamad2924]

Been scouring youtube looking for a video that addresses the fundamental issues causing shank and ideal solution. In 1 session at range you have eliminated 90% of my shanking. Thanks

[@adamgrym5614]

A super constructive lessen on the subject! Thank you!

[@stephenh1616]

Love this. I tend to shank on a simple pitch form 60 yards in. Started to pivot with my shoulder and it's a great improvement. Just need to practice and tackle the mental side then. Cheers.

[@lawjoe1]

My shank has got to my head and is there before I get to the golf course. Have not had a chance to try you fix and sure hope it works

[@leouribe1332]

Golf Club release drill

[@kylemc8851]

Nobody wants to talk about it, nobody wants to focus on it... But unless we do, we won't understand the problem or come to a solution. In my case my right knee is pushing out as I am trying to get in the perfect finish too early I believe. Great vid, thank you!

[@19924799]

I've been struggling with shanking for a little wile thanks for this video il be going this lots and lots

[@tedwardx]

I've started shanking after trying to correct toe strikes. I'd like the toe strikes back please.

[@rickober61]

After a dozen other videos, I finally found a great fix for the S Word. Not overly technical, yet grounded in basic swing type issues…e.g. over the top or inside out. Easily repeatable drills also key. This guy is a born teacher. Thanks so much.

[@jaygohel1657]

Funny , shanking is not my issue. But a proper release is. Your simple drill and thinking about the left shoulder as the pivot point hit made sense. Took it straight out to the course and noticed immediate change in ball striking and impact quality. My long time golf partner was blown away. I'm a member of RS and look forward to future vids by Chris. Thanks, you really are the "release specialist"

[@Rotaryswing]

+Jay Gohel hahaha thanks Jay...glad to hear you got some good info out of the video. "Release specialist" is not a term that has stuck but I do pride myself in understanding the sciences behind the release in the golf swing. - Chris Tyler

[@paulbarrett2756]

Great lesson

[@camelcase9225]

Hmm..I like the drill to correct an out to in path.

[@CorekBleedingHollow]

Another very frustrating day of golf today. I was shanking a lot of iron shots

[@thomjap1120]

OMG thank you this helped me so much. #Noshank

[@RN-mj9xx]

What club are you using?

[@JJG86]

I shank chips around the green, will these drills help?

[@Melted_Butter]

JJ G My problem too. What’s been working for me is body stability. Making sure I’m not swaying or moving the sternum too much.

[@wespo74]

there's also a "toe" shank which very few people can master. I may be the only true expert.

[@BWat17]

ive gone from a 13 handicap to a 19 handicap in the past 2 months because i randomly developed a shank out of nowhere, hopefully this helps on the range after work today

Shanking the ball is very difficult to overcome. No one could shank a ball 45 degrees better than I. I made my mind up to learn Moe Norman's golf swing or quit golf. Years of work , now I have a golf swing that works. This was not easy to develop, and I still shanked the ball UNTIL I understood Moe's set up and firing sequence of the swing. This swing let me see clearly what was causing the shank. In my case the hips were opening too soon causing the lead side of the body to also open too soon. Moe's swing allowed me to find a set up that kept the lead side in the proper position through out the swing. Follow the set up procedure ZERO shanks, confidence, golf is fun! Age 61 and I stripe the golf ball straight and long! Most would never endure the dedication it took to master this move. It is the simplest move in golf once you understand the ingredients to the set up. You can self correct if you hit a poor shot. All my misses are straight, you can play with that!! Good luck to all those who suffer from the shank! I had to fight cancer in life but the shank is the toughest fight on the planet! It devalues your enjoyment and potential as a golfer. You deserve better, thanks Moe!!!

[@richardj6593]

The best shank advice I have ever seen is..."if you shank the ball, it means your hands got closer to the ball on the downswing than they were at setup" Once I realized the truth in this statement, I was always able to stop shanking instantly.

[@migueldonate4361]

Agreed. Once I understood that my hands were to far away from my body on tge downswing I was able to completely stop the shanks. Now I will always be able to fix it instantly.

[@purngcol]

OK mine isnt a shank per say mine comes off the blade and goes straight right its destroying me just now, only happens with my sand wedge off the fairways, any help would be appreciated

[@Misnjef]

Col Smith that is a shank.

[@purngcol]

A shank is when it comes off the hozzle

[@randywright3148]

Dude, if it is coming off the club straight right you are hitting off the hosel. A ball won't come off the club face that way.

[@Misnjef]

Randy Wright thank you

[@purngcol]

its coming off the blade toe

[@Jack393GamingYT]

Lifesaver

[@halfscottishswimmer]

I've just looked at some self analysis videos and my club is coming down the same plane and my knees isn't really moving that much yet I still shank. Any ideas?

[@Misnjef]

[@stackleft2925]

I have been playing golf for a long time. The shanks kind of remind me of an STD. I may not shank one for years, and all of a sudden, out of nowhere, there they are. It's annoying. I have an over the top shank which just ruins my damn day. 5 handicap and out of nowhere here they come. This effing game... smh.

[@alg7096]

The shank is almost always a setup and/or takeaway issue as being the cause. The downswing is usually just the effect. Get good at mastering alignment, which pretty no one get correct. Seriously whoever is reading this you more than likely suck at alignment which leads to pretty much all your swing issues. Then work on a takeaway where your hands stay inside the clubhead going back. Most golfers overuse their hands and quickly get the clubhead behind the hands early in to the takeaway. This sets you up for a possible shank either from the inside or over the top. Better alignment and takeaway almost all ways fixes the shank. Problem is no one checks that to see if that’s the problem. It’s always the simplest thing. Work on the boring obvious stuff and you can master hitting the middle of the face.
