so occasionally i keep my head down a little longer through impact so i can try and see the way the clubhead goes through the ball. sometimes it looks as though its cutting across and catching the ball on the toe, but never does the ball fade right or pull left. also, theres never a ball mark on the toe, just somewhere near the sweetspot.

anyone else do this or experience this?

I don't. And they say your eye only catches about 60 frames per second anyway, roughly, and that's not nearly quick enough to really see much. Look at film - it's either 24 or 30 (29.97) frames per second, and the clubhead is just a big freakin' blur.

I try to watch something _under_ the ball - the tee, the piece of grass, etc. Because that is moving slow enough that you can see it after the ball suddenly vanishes.

    • Meh I don’t care anymore. I’ll have a new hybrid soon. One that is younger, with technology not from almost a decade ago, and isn’t full of baggage from hitting bad shots.
    • The '2H" wrote back -  "Well, if you had an worthwhile pre-shot routine..."
    • I have that club and absolutely love it!
    • Have a 19° (moved to 20.5°) Titleist 915H. I just love the club. Beautiful feel off the sweetspot, high launch, soft landing. Versatile. In the future, with less overall speed I will replace my 4 and 5 irons with another hybrid, something around 26°. 
    • Broke the head of a Stealth Plus on a warm up. TaylorMade send me a new head but I decided to upgrade it to the new IQ10 LS and pay the difference. While I was waiting for the 8° head to arrive at the store I messed around with all the multi brand putts they had available. I instantly liked a black TaylorMade Spider, not the new one but very similar. The weight felt perfect. Big line in the middle for easy alignment. I was playing and old Zebra so the change in technology and feel was huge. Fast review of both clubs.. Driver QI10 LS. I always hit to ball up in the sky. I was playing the stealth at 7° with a 60g X low flight shaft and I was still hitting it pretty high. With the QI10 playing it at 6° now is almost hard for me to hit it high, with the same shaft the ball comes out lower and with less spin. so I'm really happy with the change. Putter Spider. I love it. It took me an afternoon to figure out how to grip it (it comes with a superStroke grip) but after that it all came into place. More stable on short putts and a good weight to swing smoothly on long putts and with added forgiveness over my old zebra.
