I had the same problem with wedges and it took me awhile but I determined with 100% certainty that MY shanks were caused by my body moving ballward as the backswing reached the top. The fix- make sure ye ole buttocks stays on the 'tush line' and that your head is still. Most people when thinking about keeping the head still, concentrate on not letting it move toward the sky or toward the target, but you need to make sure that it does not move any closer to the ball as well. You can shank from both under plane and over-the-top if your body moves toward the ball and puts the hozel 'in line' with the ball.
