It appears that he missed the ball and the ball hit the sticks? Dave - Fuzzy Hashing makes me itch.

caryj Member 88 posts Joined Oct 2005 More info | I think he would have had a better chance of hitting the ball if he would have been looking at it instead of you in the first one. I can't imagine why athletes do that. I've noticed a number of shots like this, here and in other forums, where the athlete should be concentrating on the ball and is staring at the camera.
