The embedded video is making a fuss.  I think she is the one I watched very briefly this weekend.  I saw her pull-shank one on a par 3 after this ridiculous swing.

Is it possible to pull a shank?

I thought this was more extreme than John Daly, but it's about the same.

Don't fear I'm here.   Ah yeah...it is not very likely unless you hit just slightly to the inside part of the hosel.  It takes a lot of talent, but if you can pull it off you can even get a little draw on it.

I think you could do it. You just have to move the sweetspot out far enough for a regular shank and then move it MOAR FURTHER than that. Basically hit it with the backside of the hosel. Voilá, pull shank.

She actually gets to perpendicular to the ground on many swings.

Bingo, I think we are definitely getting to the bottom of this quandary now!

I thought this though. That's not a pull, that's a dribble that will never make it past the ladies tee.

Ball position a little more forward, stand retardedly close to it, lots of extension through impact, Bat Signal to the sky!

      Yeah I’ve tried it but I don’t feel very comfortable doing it like that. Isn’t there like a website where I can do it so it’s safer??

      2026 Masters

      By Ty_Webb · Posted

      It's going to be very difficult for the 2026 Masters to match the 2025 edition for storyline. I honestly don't know that anyone else in the field could match the story of Rory finally winning after so many years and the blow ups over the years, not to mention the career slam being completed. No one this year that I can think of is remotely close to that kind of story. Combine that with the attempts at blow ups last year (Double on the 1st, 13, 18 on first try) and the stunningly good shots that he hit in the final round (7, 15, 17, 18 on second try).  Full gamut: https://www.masters.com/en_US/watch/2025-04-13/17445961638226475/every_single_shot_from_rory_mcilroys_final_round.html
