Not necessarily anti reverse k...you have options...however that reverse K sets everything to swing "under and out"...if you are shhh shhh shhhanking it...you don't need no more "out"...
So sternum/solar plexus thingie in front of ball slightly...soft left arm/light grip pressure in left pinky...take it back with the face looking at the ball more...let the club "thump" the ground...experiment with what part of the club engages the turf to hit different shots....leading edge...middle of sole...back of sole....
you want the sweetspot hittin' the ball not the ho hoo hozel...so get the sweetspot looking at the ball and keep it looking at it...don't need much motion in the face...it's a chip...
be sure you ain't using some whacky hand/wrist motion to move the club...power it back and through with your right elbow more...not necessarily your wrists...let them respond.

Thanks to dodger, Daryl, 12pc and Brent. I think I have finally fixed the short game shanks. For those of you scared of saying the word or thinking there of some kind of black magic with the shanks, stop! It a physical, mechanical problem with the swing. Quit ignoring them and fix it. Use the info these guys provided. After working on what these guys said, I feel better about chip and pitch shots than I ever have. Thanks again.
Chip shanks (ouch) are often a result of over swiveling the clubhead under the plane on the backstroke. It begets an equal and opposite motion on the through swing and feels like youre throwing the hozel or face at the ball. Never a good thing.
At least thats how I execute that procedure.
If your hands are moving out from DTL I bet you over swivel you left forearm sending the club back, under plane. The solution dont let the clubhead move inside of your hands until they reach the same height. Dont let your clubhead move inside of your hands and under your hands. Send the hands Back, In and Up , not Back , Out , Up.
In other words .......you got to get on plane and get rid of any false feel loading you've learned. Close your eyes and feel how it feels when done correctly . Where you feel it in your hands. Then repeat that feel. Learn feel from alignments and reproduce them via the feel.
Mr Hogans chipping style if seen DTL will not wag the clubhead under the hands or under plane.
