Good catch! That's the most reasonable explanation I've heard yet. The golfer's foot positions are also more consistent with a backswing.

I'd like to see this try to be duplicated.

Maybe I can conduct some tests during the R^2 Challenge Cup at next week's 5th Annual Tournament of Rosie. <shameless promotion>

Still a few spots left!! see www.team839.com for more information. Or PM me.

a few years back I had my photo taken for my drivers license.

I can only surmize the camera they used scanned your face from left to right, because I was watching someone walking across the room as they took my photo

and it came out with my eyes pointing in different directions, ala Son Of Marty Feldman

thats what was on my drivers license for 4 years!
