What is a Shank
A shank happens when you hit the ball with the housel (the intersection of the clubhead and the shaft) of the club. It doesn’t matter if the face of your club is open, closed or square, a ball struck on the housel of the club will exit almost directly to the right (left if you’re left handed) with no height and no distance.
The Fix: Erika Larkin shows the cause and a cure for the dreaded shank where the ball hits the hosel (where the shaft is connected to the clubhead) rather than the clubface.
