What does using the ground in golf mean?

It’s the same in using the ground in your golf swing except, normally, your feet don’t come off the ground in the backswing. Using the ground is almost as if you’re pushing against the ground in order to gain more club head speed and more power at impact. This process leads to more distance, especially off the tee.

What does it mean to flatten golf swing?

Shallowing the golf club means that you get the club to flatten out more horizontally on the way down. Most golfers instead, have an over the top, casting motion which leads a steeper plane on the downswing. This will allow you to have a perfect angle to compress the golf shot at impact and make great contact.

How do I learn to swing with my legs?

Load up your right leg (trail leg) by shifting your weight to start the swing.
