K Anders, many players will take a quick look at the defence after they make their pass and again after they see the set. The theory is that after the set has been made, the trajectory won't change, so there is a split second of free time where you don't need to watch the ball. This is when you will be half way through your spike approach. You can take your eyes off the ball, check the defence, then find the ball again before you contact it. Takes a bit of practice ;-) Tony, I am pretty sure that on a good set like the one in the photo Todd Rogers can see the whole court most of the time.

Is this something that we should be practicing? I see a lot of players move their head to look at the defender as they are just about to jump. Is this something that we should be practicing?

Do you think he can really see the defender is moving to the line? That is a great shot of Rogers. Do you think he can really see the defender is moving to the line?
