9 iron in a light tent with a ball and some grass thrown up in front of it just as I release the shutter.
Had to use 1/400s to freeze the action and crop out the banding top and bottom that resulted in the camera not being able to sync with the strobes at that speed.
Very basic edit

Although I assume this is a set-up shot, I really like it. I wish you had lit the ball a little more, as it is an integral part of the action. The black background really works for me. Nice job.
I get that its a 9 iron, but at first glance, I see a 6. I like the deep black you capture in your background to make your subject pop, but the ball needs to be a bigger part of the frame and better lit. Good start, but it could definitely use more time in the setup and lighting. 5.
