  • HELP Iron Shank!

    I will preface by saying I have always been a pretty good iron player, fluctuate between a 7-9 Handicap.
    but the last couple of rounds I have be literally just shanking iron shots. These ugly shanks 30-50 yards right of target... and have no idea where this came from bd how to fix it!

    Been there many times. Try putting weight on your heels stand a touch further from the ball, take club a little inside on your take away and swing normal. If that don’t work, try addressing the ball on the heel of your club and swing. Hope it works.

        ^^^ Great advice,
        remember the difference between a fantastic shot and a shank is a couple of millimeters or so.

                I’ve been dealing with this for 12 years. I’ll be hitting the ball really well then out of nowhere the skanks . what I’ve been working on this year to help eliminate the shanks . Work on fixing early extension. Eric corgano golf on you tube has some great vids .
                Weight in heals a bit more. Stand a little further from the ball. Also on the downswing feel like your hands are swinging closer to you. For I right hander I feel like my hands are going to hit my left leg
