Golf instructor Ashley Knoll explains how trail hand grip placement influences swing plane height during the backswing. A top hand position results in a higher plane, side placement creates a mid-level plane, and a bottom placement produces a lower swing plane.

• Trail hand grip position directly dictates your swing plane height.
• Placing the trail hand on top of the grip leads to a higher swing plane.
• Positioning the trail hand on the side produces a mid-level swing plane.
• Placing the trail hand underneath creates a lower swing plane.
