Any Tricks/Hints For Learning To Keep One's Eye On The Ball? (Is it even necessary?)

@garyt1957: That's essentially what @TrueMotionMatt was saying.

I had been keeping my head down until the club head impacted the ball. After Matt's suggestions I don't do that anymore. Once my down-swing begins my head begins to turn. In fact it might even be my head turning initiates my down-swing. I really couldn't say for sure. (I'm trying not to over-think something that's working. That sometimes makes it stop working.)

Turns out the main problem all along wasn't not keeping my head down, keeping my eye on the ball, what-have-you, anyway. It was primarily failure to keep my left arm straight through the swing. (Secondarily: Swinging in [chicken wing?], cocking my left wrist.)
 
Eye on the ball you say? (sorry.. Injecting some humor as I just saw this)
