Graham,
 
> Also, what about the head twisting at impact? It's hard to see in the pictures but could the face open slightly as well? Therefore, the torque of the shaft may be having more of an effect on the direction and trajectory than I would have thought previously.
 
Yes, a lot of the photos show the head twisting slightly open, but I don't think torque has anything to do with what happens to the ball (from my dad's bulge patent research). The head is rotating around its cg...the shaft plays no part in what happens at impact. Since the shaft was flexing forward and face was slightly closed before impact, the hit was slightly toward the toe...and head rotates open, while gearing ball with a draw spin. Good drive. :-)
