Tour Striker Nation,

If you're on the East Coast right now, you're probably staring at 2–3 feet of snow and wondering when you'll see a fairway again.

Good news. You don't need a golf course today. Just your living room and the same bathroom scales from last week. This time, we're chipping.

Most golfers assume that because the shot is small, the movement should be small too.

Stand still. Keep your head down. Don't do too much.

That's the kiss of death for your short game.

Here's what's actually happening in a good short game motion — and what I see going wrong at almost every school I teach…

Video of Martin explaining proper weight shift for short game shots

In the lesson, I'll show you…

✔️ Why even tiny shots around the green require real weight shift — and what the scales reveal

✔️ The difference between a "merry-go-round" and a "ferris wheel". And why one of them is killing your short game

✔️ What actually happens when the club goes down, the body goes up, and the weight moves forward

Most golfers are frozen over short shots.

That stillness is the problem.

This video will change the way you see chipping and pitching.

In case you missed it...

That red and white alignment tool on the ground in the video? That's the Tour Striker Toolbox.

The same one I bring to every school I teach.

It's also the same one Chris Gotterup has been training with... and he's won twice already this season.

Just saying.
