The Foot Wedge is always with you whether you have your clubs or not...
It's mighty handy, for instance, if your lie is say in the rough and a large Water Oak is between you and the pin...
As long as you declare "Foot Wedge", there is no penalty... If you use the Foot Wedge without declaration, then the penalty is 3 strokes...
The Foot Wedge ranks right up there with the "Penis Putter", another anatynomical instrument of interest, too some, especially the Beer Cart Babes...
