The hands are way too unreliable to control a golf swing effectively. Trust me, your brain knows how to square your hands up without you having to tell it. I can tell by your swing.
Also, you missed on your third shot because you had a great shot, then tried to make a greater one. If it ain't broke, don't fix it.
I had the shanks for about a week last month. My problem was trying to incorporate a one plane swing with a two plane swing. The release in the two plane swing requires timing of the hands while the one plane does not as much. You may want to look into that at

Your exactly right.......I went out yesterday and about 80% of my first 30 shots on the range were shanks. Then I hit a this one shank with my lob wedge and i was like man that felt weird.
My club face was open and i didn't know it.....then i went back to the thought of imagine the back of your left hand is the club face.....that and going more strait back on the take away instead of going outside the ball and BAM.....shanks no more.
So i left the range and went and walked 9 holes and shot 40.....with a double on the first and a bogey on the last.....and really.....there were 2 puts i should have made.
So i went from shooting a 99 where i hit 11of 14 fairways in arguably the most disappointing round of my life to shooting a 40 when I could have shot 38. Hopefully I keep it up
Thanks guys
