When a golfer shanks their ball, they hit it incorrectly, sending the shot flying off in a random direction. The shanks can be aggravating and embarrassing, but it can be alleviated.
As part of Golf University’s weekly “Tip from the Pro” I videoed Lawrie Montague the former Australian Women’s coach and co-coach of the Indonesian Team at Joondalup Golf Resort, in Perth, Australia, where he teaches us:
- The key factors that cause golfers to shank
- How keeping your club in front of you eliminates shanking
And…
- The easiest exercise you can do to improve your swing
Which will ultimately…
- Prevent you from shanking whenever you’re pitching or chipping the ball.

Until next week
To the green in regulation!
