One of the major problems for the 100-shooter is hitting a bad drive and then compounding the mistake. If you're in trouble, you should have two goals. The first is to get out of trouble and back to the fairway with the least amount of risk. That usually means hitting a short iron out of the rough instead of trying to chop at it with a 5-wood or hybrid. Your second goal is to make solid contact on the shot you pick. Try this drill: Hold a balloon between your forearms at address, and practice hitting sand-wedge shots while keeping it in place. You'll create a longer, more consistent impact area. This drill works for every club -- even your putter.
