I was hoping to get some input from you guys with regards to my swing. I hit at least 5 shanks in yesterdays round and I think I need to make some changes to improve strike location.
To start off, I hit everything on the heel. I'm sure that isn't true 100 percent of the time, but I would say it is the vast majority. It doesn't matter what club. I do tend to get bad cases of the shanks at times. I won't hit any for weeks, but then I'll have rounds where I'm constantly shanking shots (like yesterday). Also, I don't know if it is related, but I have been topping a lot of shots lately with my driver / 3w from the tee box. I unfortunately do not have a video of me swinging either of those clubs.
I have 2 videos of my swing from the round yesterday. In the "down the line" video, I'm not quite framed correctly. I didn't notice it until after I left the course. Hopefully the videos are good enough so that y'all can look for swing flaws or things that might be impacting my strike location.
Front Angle - This was a shank
Down the Line - This strike was very far on the heelside, but ended up with a decent result on the right side of the green
I'd like to hear people's observations about my swing and things that I may be able to work on!
Much appreciated.
