How can I improve spine tilt at impact?

[Jim Kobylinski]

Tried Jim's suggested drill with keeping right foot planted at half to three-quarter follow through. Why am I shanking? If I try to move left with lower body and right heel coming up, no shank but not a real crisp impact. Am I losing axis tilt, clubface issue? any idea why keeping right foot planted through impact would make me shank? If you watch Mickelson, his right foot is well planted through impact. Any ideas?

You're lagging the hosel...do a search for Brian's free video.

So essentially, because you have been lagging the hosel and probably swinging too far inside/out you have been coming OUT of your tilt so you DON'T shank it.

Here's a drill i give to people when they find this out:

Hit balls with your right thumb off the club, this will help you learn how much to let the clubface roll open. Then as you get more comfortable you can put your thumb back on the club

Thanks Jim, great suggestion to work on, also clears up why I am coming out of my posture.
