I have a problem with my weight shifting forward on to the front foot badly and cannot seem to harness it without shutting down the lower half and shanking the ball.

Is this from getting too far on my backside in the backswing? I have messed around with putting the weight on the front foot throughout the swing like the stack and tilt method but it is still coming forward. Does anyone have any feel drills, tips for this?

pick up your left foot a tad during the backswing

I disagree, by lifting your front foot on the back swing, you will be swaying your weight instead of rotating your weight. In your back swing you should focus weight on the inside of your right thigh (lefty left). This will promote a proper hip turn. Are you rotating your shoulders properly? Your shoulder blades should be facing the target at the peak of your back swing. If you can get your hips and shoulders into position, I say, let the let the hips fly. With your hips firing now, the ball should do what you want. Maybe off subject, but hope it helps

What do you mean forward? Foward towards the ball or forward towards the target?
