Is it bad for the shaft to bend just before impact? ie it looks like (

It depends on your hardware you used to take the images. The "reverse" bend can be a product of the camera itself.

I see. Like the pencil wobbling trick? Hmmm. Im thinking that im thinking too much about my swing/equipment. This might not be too good. Cheer sHenno.

You need to worry about spin rates. Not how the shaft looks at slo mo. Even the best slo mo cameras play tricks with a shaft bending at impact.

Yep, it looks something like that, except (as per my other post in Equip Me) I release it too early.
Ive concluded that Im thinking about the swing/equ too much - I should just play.
Thanks gents.

If you're swinging it like Sadlowski perhaps it's time to start working on your accuracy and short game - see you on tour.
