I LOVE that etrade baby commercial…the Shankapotomus one. “Read the rule book, Shankapotomus!” Awesome! I have a LOT of golfer friends that the commercial makes me think of, too…. how about you?

I came across a cool little site that sells custom Shankapotomus gifts… TShirts, coffee mugs, keychains, hoodies, polo shirts, baby wear, mouse pads… you name it! All with unique and hard-to-find Shankapotomus tag lines on them.

What are the Pros and Cons? If over a dozen PGA tour Pros are using it, is it the right swing technique for YOUR golf game, too?

Ugh… the shanks. In golf, it feels like you’ve lost your entire game. It’s over. Stash your golf bag in the attic and take up tennis or some other sport. Is there hope when you get the shanks? Can the shanks be fixed?

Yes, you CAN be cured of the shanks. First step is to understand why you are shanking the golf ball…and then learn what to do about it. Above all, be patient and relax.

I know it’s easier said than done, but the shanks get worse due to your lack of confidence. Golf is a mental game more than anything. All good golfers will experience the shanks at one time or another. Consider it your right of passage into the world of being a good golfer.

It will get better. Read these tips and see if your golf shanks can’t be fixed.

Absolutely NOTHING feels worse to a golfer than taking what feels like a great swing at the golf ball and seeing that ball go dead RIGHT (or for the left-handed player, dead LEFT). “The Shanks” begin as simple golf swing flaw and then progress into a total mental meltdown. Even Pros get the shanks - watch this video of Tiger Woods hitting a shank golf shot! Then, keep reading and listen to one casual golfers story of going from his best golf ever… to a serious case of the shanks.
