Vary wedge grinds and bounce according to specific shot types instead of picking identical or random grinds.
Prioritize getting iron lie angles checked regularly, as improper lie dramatically impacts turf interaction and initial ball flight.
Opt for more forgiving driver heads (like the Titleist GT2) paired with softer shafts rather than ultra-stiff, low-spin tour builds.
