Mastering your golf swing plane doesn’t have to be complicated. Think of it as your club traveling on an invisible ramp centered on you—a path that keeps your shots consistent, accurate, and powerful. When your swing follows this “plane” snugly from take-away to follow-through, you hit better shots more often.
