Just joined RSA and am in Part 1 on Consistency.

Just joined RSA and am in Part 1 on Consistency. Unfortunately my only thing consistent shot right now is a shank. Hoping one of the instructors will comment on uploaded video clip. There is also a still photo at impact which I extracted from the video clip. Trying to figure out which kind of shanker I am (per the shank video). I think I am pushing off right foot and rotating from right side which is pushing my pelvis and shoulders out of line and closer to the ball, moving club head into shank position at impact but I am not sure. Any help most appreciated!

Hello Jeffrey. Welcome to the club. A couple thoughts on the issue. For Phase 1 the swing is pretty large. You need to tone down the size first. The takeaway get a little bit inside and then you hit the shank by coming too far from the inside coming down with the legs not clearing enough for space at impact. I would work on the hips and size first. Then, start adding the impact portion of Phase 1 Learn how to maintain the lead wrist feeling of bowed/flat. Long story short it is the legs and inside downswing plane with lack of release. We can get this cleaned up :flagpin:
