I can still do a full swing with the wedge at this point, but last night I must have shanked 30 balls trying to pinpoint the cause. I can't for the life of me figure out what is causing this.

Any suggestions?
A suggestion:

3-f-5, work on your routine- never move the club without it - and go through your own CHECKLIST,

like this:

write it down, use the list in every practice, until U dont need the list.

Sorry I can not guess at a quick fix but I hope I point you in the right direction.

HungryBear,

Yes, more attention needs to be paid to my routine. I think in doing so, I might have highlighted not only this shanking problem with the wedges, but a problem with the driver as well. It might be that right hand grip is too weak-turning to much to the right. This seems to have many unwanted effects
