Hitting or Swinging, the Knees and Feet are your stabilizing Anchors to the Ground. The Legs exert a 90 degree ('normal') force on the ground. And vice versa.

To get an idea of how important the ground is, imagine stepping off the side of an unsecured rowboat onto a dock some distance away. If in the Golf Stroke the ground acted the same way as the boat, there would be big trouble!
