Lam Chih Bing's Swing Sequence at the Barclays Singapore Open

great sequence

Guys with the images here don't get the impression that the shaft does actually flex that much at the bottom of the swing and through impact.

Yes the shaft does bow although the camera distorts the actual action due to the shutter speed of the camera and the way that digital cameras capture the image.

The casio's are head and shoulders the best HS cameras on the market but you need to be able to manually adjust the shutter speed in order for the camera to capture the image faster and reduce the amount of shaft blur. A camera captures and stores the image from the top down. As the clubhead is moving the fastest towards the bottom of the swing the data capture suffers and that is why the shaft looks like to bows excessively.

I have a Casio F1 as well as an EX FH 100 and they both run great at 120fps with the shutter at 1:2000 or higher in great light.

There's a video that explains golf the 'excessive' bowing of the golf shaft during the swing...
