TourStriker PlaneMate Help

[Ironbud]

Hey gang!

I recently purchased this gizmo to work on my swing in the garage during the off season. I'm only on the first and second protocol. I'm a little lost. I have done the protocol movement as instructed in the video during a couple sessions of 30 reps. In a mirror it looks like I am doing it correctly. My problem is when I do it with an actual ball the ball is going 45 degrees left (push/I'm left handed) into the net instead of straight. I've tried to do the motion very slowly and to ensure the face is square to the target but when I hit a ball it shoots left. I tried standing closer and farther from the ball. No luck. I may get a couple good ones but not many. 

Any ideas what I'm doing wrong?

 

Thanks in advance.

You're either:

• Shanking it (most likely)
• Leaving the face WIDE the heck open (less likely, especially if you put the clip on in the correct orientation)

Shanking with the PlaneMate is not an unheard of thing. It's quite common.

Good to know it's not just me!  Great video. Thanks for putting it out there. I'll give it a go tonight.
