Do You Lift Your Head Before Impact?

If you have gotten a case of the shanks, or if you feels like you are lifting my head before impact...

There are 4 great ways to shank it. You can start to close to the ball, get too close to the ball during the swing, come excessively from the inside or excessively from the outside. While this doesn't answer the question, it gives you an idea what you are dealing with.
 

The best place to start is with your address. A common mistake people who are shanking make is starting too far from the ball with the weight in the heels. This makes the player move towards the ball during the swing, cutting off the space you were trying to create in set-up and can often lead to the dreaded shank. Instead, start with the weight more in the balls of your feet and try to get the feeling the weight is moving into the right heel on the backswing and the left heel on the downswing.

This should help. If it doesn't, you need to figure out which path problem you have and work on that as well.
