i'm no expert but just keep playing stroke games.
the more u play the more u adapt to the game, course environment and your clubs. i've been improving week by week and all it is knowing what your clubs can do in certain situations. just make sure u have GI-D balls.
E.G my favourite club is a 60w Ping pro. its yardage is 75 and i know now that it can accurately carry a ball through wind, up a hill, down a slope, out of rough, out of sand and it is very accurate in most situations. it has great backspin when needed. but the best bit is, i tend to never be too far from the pin when i use it, it has really got me out of many pickles. so rather than slugging my way to the pin, i try and land 75yrds out and because of the wedge's loft, i can land with out roll close to the hole.
hope it helps... oh and i use ping G10's irons and wedges, the precision is excellent.
