Ever wonder what “swinging on plane” actually means? Watch as Karen Palacios-Jansen breaks it down in a simple, visual way using a tool you already have—your walking golf bag.
Set your bag down so it rests naturally at an angle, just like it does when you’re walking the course. That angle closely mimics the shaft angle of your golf club at address. Now, imagine your club swinging back and through along that same tilted path. This is your swing plane!
In this tip, CardioGolf® Creator Karen Palacios-Jansen: demonstrates how your club should move around your body on that angled path—not too flat, not too upright. It’s a great way to feel what the correct swing plane looks like without needing any fancy equipment.
✅ This drill helps you:
• Visualize the correct path of the club
• Prevent over-the-top or flat swings
• Train your muscle memory for a more consistent swing
Grab your bag, find your angle, and groove that plane!
