I figured that you would do something cool.

On the "best feeling" swings you may not be rotating your hands enough so that you are not square at impact. I find that I do this, and as a compensation I close the clubface alot at address. The other option may be to try adding a few grams (brass plugs) to the tip of the shaft (this will change the moment of inertia of the clubhead). This may allow you to SUBCONSCIENIOUSLY rotate your hands a little bit faster on the best feeling swings and you won't have to close the clubface at address or even worse CONSCIENIOUSLY rotate your hands through impact.
