DO YOU KNOW HANK THE SHANK?

(January 01, 2007) Got the shanks? Once they come you try everything to get rid of them. You muse, how did I get them? You wonder if they will go away as quickly as they came. Then you wonder if they are with you forever. You tell everyone you play with that you are quitting the game, you can’t stand it any longer. You hit balls, you take anyone’s advice, but they come back after you thought you had it licked.

You are playing well and that big drive sets up a wedge to the green. #%^%$#*&^& you mutter as the approach sails low and right towards the woods or a nearby condo. Luckily you don’t hear glass after that hosel rocket.

CORRECT THAT SHANK……Try not to swing too flat and then throw your arms out cutting across the ball. You need to correct your swing plane. Hang your arms down as you hold the club. Push the club low along a straight path past your back knee. Your trunk rotation will now set the club on the correct plane. An inside out swing path now may just happen to fix that shank.
