Most golfers struggle endlessly because the practice the wrong things.
If they even practice at all.
But you don't want to be that guy.
You want to actually improve your golf game by practicing the right things for your own individual swing.
But how do you do that? The first thing you must do is determine what kind of swing you have.
That's not nearly as difficult as it may sound.
It comes down to one of two options.
Are You a One-plane or Two-Plane Golfer? This topic has caused a lot of confusion and discussion over the last several years.
But there is a difference and you need to know what kind of golfer your are a one-planer or a two-planer because that will help you understand your natural golf swing.
Let's look at the definition of each to allow you to determine which swing is your natural one.
One Plane Swing One-plane golfers turn their shoulders around a bent-over spine and swing their arms around their upper body onto the same "plane" as their shoulders.
Just imagine being bent over with your arms hanging down and as you turn back your arms and shoulders all turn on the same plane.
Tiger Woods "latest" swing is a one-plane swing.
Two Plane Swing The two-plane golfer stands much more upright.
Two-plane golfers swing their arms on an upright plane while the shoulders turn on a much more flat plane instead of everything moving on the same plane like in the one-plane swing.
A two-plane swing uses timing and tempo as key fundamentals to its success.
If timing is off is can throw the entire swing off.
Fred Couples is a perfect example of a two-plane golfer.
Even though some people say a one-plane swing is more reliable than a two-pane one.
Please understand that may not matter to you if your natural, basic golf swing is a two-plane one.
It is hard for people to go against their natural tendencies.
Just do what feels best and most natural to you and then work on improving one thing at a time.
