In summary…Ideally in an “on-plane” swing, if the club is short of parallel to the ground, the club should also point to the left of the target line at the top of your swing. Only if your club makes it all the way to parallel with the ground, should your backswing be parallel to the target line.If you are someone who tends to both hook and block your shots, getting your backswing “on plane” will help you to move away from the dreaded two way miss by helping to get the club more “in front” of you on the downswing.
