Thin Fat Shanks

Just been wondering what causes these three nightmare shots

Heres my imput


Ball too far back/forward
Standing up during swing or bending down too much to compensate.
And finally what only comes to mind at the moment is shifting onto your toes just before impact.

Hope this helps

Thins - stuck on the right side.
Fats - stuck on the right side.
Shanks - hands too close to thighs at setup.

How long have you got?

All tree can be caused by multiple swing issues and often a combination of problems. These issues has been keeping PGA Pros in business for decades. Just look at the number of instructional DVDs and magazine articles and you will see what I mean.

For what it's worth.

Thins, ball back in your set-up, or trying to scoop the ball up.

Fat, not transferring your weight.

Shank, for me VERY definitely coming over the top.Hitting the ball from the inside cures it for me.

Or in some cases:

Fats, ball too far back in your set-up.

Top, not transferring your weight.

Shank, hitting the ball too much from the inside causes it for me.
