    So many people get worried about this shot because it can really get in your head. There is no need to even be worried about shanking the golf ball as these keys are guaranteed to fix your shanks for good.
    Even if you don't shank the ball these 3 keys are amazing to helping you improve your ball striking. If you're looking to play better golf then improving your ball striking is crucial.
    The 3 keys in the video is mastering your setup but more specifically your balance. If your balance is good then you'll be far more stable through your swing. The second key is having great footwork in the downswing. Making sure your trail leg doesn't kick in towards the ball will put you in the best possible position to make solid contact at impact. Finally controlling your trail arm in the downswing making sure you can get good shaft lean at impact will cure your shank and instantly improve your ball striking.

    Great video, probably one of the best I’ve seen for low handicap shank problems, I’ve never heard anyone talk about balance point from my arm pits, I’ve just compared a shank to a good strike and on the shank my arm pit line was through the middle of my feet, where as the good strike was through the laces, we’re talking centimetres, this game is ridiculous 😂

    I just want to say thank you. I have been watching so many videos on what was causing my shanks. I guess I watched one video to many and was lifting my trail leg way to soon, I am 59 and my hip rotation are years behind me. I was ready to sell out.

    Thank you for the "move the right knee toward the left knee" tip. That was my problem! I had degraded to to "round house" swing instead of the "left shift" swing. Millions times better! You got a sub!

  • @johnschwartz1536

    Excellent video Giles on which poor body movement could cause a shank! I am probably guilty of standing too close to the ball, poor hip movement through the ball, and straightening the right arm prior to impact. When a shank does occur, which isn't too often, it usually happens on short pitch shots to the green. Now I have focal points when it does happen to look to. Good Job Giles!

    Brilliant, I'm going thru the shanks atm and feeling too embarrassed at the range. I felt like my golf was at a good place last year. But I feel totally lost atm. This is the best video I've found, I will take it to the range with me and figure out where I'm going wrong.

    Been struggling with the shanks for the last few weeks. Went through an entire bucket of range balls today and couldn't figure out what was going on. I think it is the trailside kick, looking forward to giving this a shot this week.

    The main problem with the drill of head cover in arm pit u can't get any width in your backswing. You're never going to swing like that.

    • @Gilesgillgolf
      @Gilesgillgolf  10 місяців тому

      You can do. Your arm will just be more externally rotated. However when giving players that drill I only tell them to do 3/4 swings

  • @Robertoknowit
    @Robertoknowit 14 днів тому

    Too close to the ball or slowing down the swing if you previously shanked in your round,by slowing the swing through tension in your arms causes the head to lift leading to an open clubface rather than a pure shank.That's the outcome of not knowing when.
