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.
No doubt, many Members look at Archie's Signature above and recall its origin: Anthony Ravielli's inimitable illustration from Ben Hogan's classic, Five Lessons.
But...how many think the fourth illustration in the series -- the Arched left hand and vertical left arm -- occurs opposite the middle of the Body?

See that dotted line there?
It isn't in the middle of the Body.
It is beneath the Left Shoulder.
Get it there....

That picture seems to illustrate the finish swivel beginning at impact, but I thought it doesn't occur until after low point.
My shanks also seem to come in bunch's.....and I've seem to found I am cocking ---in addition to bending--- my right wrist
cocks lifting club off plane, and on less than full shots it doesnt have time or centrif. force to get back on plane
