The most recent problem I have run into is hitting the ball on the heel. It can come up suddenly and sometimes lead to the shnks. Yesterday I hit the ball very solidly and today the heel shots crept in. It feels like something is different in my grip and/or posture, as even my takeaway feels different and I can tell from the top that it's going to hit the heel. Does anyone have an idea of what this might be? My thinking is that my right hand may get too on top of the club, possibly altering the position of my right forearm, but this is just a guess. Any help very much appreciated.

I remember G.S.E.D., George Kelnhoffer saying something like this concerning heel hits, "too OUTSIDE IN, or INSIDE OUT... it is the OUT part that is the problem."
With Toe or Heel hits, the sweetspot is off plane.

When it happens to me, it's because I'm too near the ball. Simple at that, although not simple to recognise in one own's swing.
I've been closely monitoring my posture of late. I find that when I stick my butt out further-proper posture viewed with mirror-that heel shots vanished. I reviewed some video and noticed my posture much too upright.
