    I think that is most people's biggest problem. They try to do too much and create more of a problem. Sometimes it's better to take the drop, add the penalty and move on. Just my 2 cents

    Thanks for the tips! I'm definitely guilty of 2 of those for sure, I have gotten wiser as the years get on but old habits die hard.

    I like the advice to hit to a specific target and to be aware of other problems if you hit it to long

    I really like the slow and deliberate method to getting out of trouble. Thinking about it, I usually find myself punching out quickly to get the ball in the fairway to keep the pace on the hole. This will most likely translate in evaluating some options that will not only get me back in the fairway but in a better position to make an up and down or at least score better then punching out and figuring out where to go from there.
