USAGE AND SET-UP INSTRUCTIONS
ICAUTION: Give yourself plenty of room. Make sure that furniture, objects and people are out of
the practice area so you don’t hit them while practicing your swing.
SETUP
Lift and open the top of the SKLZ Power Wedge
and stake the wedge to the ground using golf
tees. Then take your stance, positioning the back
foot over the wedge so the wedge rests under
the outside of the foot, opposite the instep. The
outside edge of your shoe should be placed
roughly half way up (on the SKLZ logo).
USAGE
Great golf swings are all about solid footwork and body sequencing, and the SKLZ Power Wedge
encourages both. When practicing with it, focus on two key elements:
1. Backswing Coil – Keep your weight on the insides of your feet. As you swing back, the Power
Wedge will discourage swaying and instead encourage rotation of your shoulders and hips. This
will get you loaded up on your back leg, maintaining a solid lower body position and promoting a
powerful coil, ready to be released in your downswing.
2. Downswing Sequencing – Start your downswing from the ground up, turning your hips first,
rather than your shoulders and arms. In your practice swings, listen for the “Click” followed by
the “whoosh” the club makes as you release it through the impact zone. When hitting balls, the
“Click” should match your point of impact.
The properly sequenced “Click” means you’re shifting your weight off your back foot with solid
timing. Watch your ball-striking improve and your scores go down!
Note: We recommend starting with practice swings only (no ball) to groove your timing and weight
shift with the Power Wedge. Then move to hitting balls.
