Re: Is the bend in the shaft in this picture real ?
I wondered that, but it's likely not that.
Someone mentioned this:
Actually if you look at the November 2009 Golf Digest under the 'these guys are good' article all 8 pictures show similar shaft bend at impact. In fact even YE Yang's shaft is bent like that at impact. It was actually something in all my years of looking at golf magazines never noticed before. So my summation is that I guess it is normal.
----
As well, "club lead at impact" is an established phenomena.
The picture shows an example of early (or lead) deflection. The magnitude of lead deflection at impact increases as shaft stiffness decreases. The magnitude of lead deflection at impact also increases as swing speed increases.
The main question is ... can it hurt my game !
