If you are looking for more speed and better contact, the answer is not just to swing harder. A big part of the equation is learning how to move the pressure through your feet and into your lead side before impact. When that sequence is right, it becomes easier to provide the club with a stable lower body, find the center of the face and compress the ball instead of catching fat or thin. That’s the idea behind Why Golf’s Power Plate.
Why Golf Pressure Plate
The Power Wedge provides an incline for your trailing foot that teaches you the sensation of properly activating your lower body. The better you can load in your leg of the path, the more power you can generate and the easier it is to reach your first side (think: throwing a ball).

The training aid puts your feet on a slight incline, giving you an exaggerated feel for a proper weight shift in your swing. First, the incline makes it easier to shift your weight in your path. So the goal is simple: move that pressure into your lead side without letting your body slide away from the target.
This distinction matters. If you can shift your pressure correctly, your weight will be in the leading leg just before the club reaches impact. Remember, most of the power in your swing comes from the pressure you put on the ground and use to move the swing forward.
It can help to relate the golf swing sequence to the movement you make when you throw the ball. When you throw a ball, load it into your back, then push it towards the target. This sequence creates speed and direction.
The golf swing has a similar relationship with the ground, and the Power Plate can help make a concept that often feels abstract much easier to grasp. When you change the pressure correctly, the plate responds, helping you hear and see if you are making the intended move.
For golfers who struggle with fat or lean contact, or want a more repeatable way to train their lower body movement, the feedback from this practical tool can be incredibly valuable.
Instead of relying on what you think a change in pressure should feel like, this device gives you a simple physical cue to help you practice the movement until you master it.
