Try this. It helped me get back on track after a "lesson induced" bout with the shanks... Take your normal setup, then relax and drop your right shoulder and allow your head to move back behind the ball. Next, loosen your grip and move your hands slightly ahead of the ball. Re-square the club face to the target, re-grip the club, and take your backswing by simply rotating your shoulders back while keeping the hips very still. To return to impact just smoothly push off with your right foot while rotating the shoulders back to the setup position. Oh, and keep your butt behind you.

Be sure to look at your club face after every strike and note where the impact was. This will help give you a feel of cause and effect.
