The two plane swing is the more traditional of the two where the golfer swing more upright, the second half of the backswing will leave the shaft plane line then regain it by dropping the hands in the downswing. One plane swinger, are more flat and remain on the shaft plane line throughout.

Tiger Wood, Peter Jacobson are good examples of single planes swings, Jack Nicklaus, Feddy Couple would be an example two planer swingers.
