What really happens after the swing..
I was trying to get the club smacking the ball, but the timing was next to impossible, most of the shots came out like this. The grass flying in the air kinda looks neat.
Took this with Nikon 50mm 1.8D. Thanks to Derek for taking over 100 swings.

Excellent capture. Another interesting take on this could be to take 2 shots, this one and one of the club swing (showing motion blur) and combine the two. I dunno, I just think it would be cool (aside from the challenge). I like the depth of field.
I like the stopped motion of the tee and blades of grass up in the air, but find the shot overall to be too dark (at least on my monitor) and the compositioni appears odd in that there is just one leg showing.
Nice DOF. The tee and grass is really sharp. Maybe a slightly different angle so the tee isn't so aligned with the leg would help the tee stand out even more (I realize this is a bit picky). I also think it would look good with a more off-center composition.
