A new highlight: Golfing the home course on Christmas Day.
I say it too often: If it's golf club shaped, you can play with it.
For the record, I'm a club doctor, not a swing doctor.
Re: Correcting the shanks?
First of all, leave the cut lobs at home. Make sure that your clubface is square to your target at all times.
Next step - make sure your hands stay in front of the club. A lot of times the clubface beats the hands to the ball, and the result is less-than-pretty. Trust your club to do the work.
Lastly, do NOT decelerate. If your backswing is too big, stop, and start over. Don't decelerate into the ball. The backswing is too short, and the clubhead zooms ahead of your hands.
