Also, there are only 2 main reasons why people shank the ball in my opinion:
1) You let the face open in the backswing like a swinger and then you try and "hit" the ball through impact. Because you let it open and are hitting, nothing has closed the face and wala...SHANK
2) You are too close to the ball at address. As you make your backswing your weight will move to your heels and on the downswing back onto your toes bringing everything "closer" to the ball and thus bring the hosel into ball.
Is there an easy way (i don't have access to a vid camera at the moment unfortunately) to try and isolate which one of those two it may be? i'm thinking getting a bit close to the ball which is why addressing the ball at impact fix off the toe sounds like a good idea. Even if i keep my balance etc would you expect a shank if you soled the club aligned with the sweetspot at impact fix and swung from there?
