I think there are some digital cameras where the entire CCD is "gated" for a fixed exposure time and the readout is done after the exposure. You wouldn't see the effect observed in photo - the club would only appear in one portion of the swing, perhaps blurred.
Agree because if you look at the direction of the club is curved it looks like the club stayed put while he swung back
