Depends on where you are losing strokes. Course management and short game are usually a good place to start dropping strokes.

Limit your big numbers. My index has went up 2 points in 3 revisions :(. Regards to your woods. I love my old launcher. I wouldn't change.

Work on short putts and figure out the best way for you to get inside 5 feet when you miss the green. Practice this way and get good at it. Also think about where to miss greens. I am sure you are missing more than half of the greens so I would really focus on what it takes to get up and down. That is the difference for me. I am not doing that and missing 2/3 of the greens and not getting up and down. Another thing I would think about is going to a premium ball. They are so much better around the greens. I recommend the Prov1 practice for about 25-30 bucks. Can't beat the deal or performance.

Make one more putt per 9 holes, and make one less over-aggressive decision. You'll be a 5 in no time.

    • Rory and Bryson are two of my favorites for some time.  This was a great watch.  Poor Rory looked gutted and (heat?) exhausted at the end there.  Bryson play US Open golf - Captain Scramble.  Avoid the blowups and accidentally find a birdie on occasion and it goes far,  
    • 2nd shot into a short par 5. I had ~185 left but was just off the fairway to the right with some low tree limbs in front of me. Aimed at the water and hit a punch slice 4 iron that started low under the trees, rose higher as it kept going, cut towards the middle of the green, carried the water and rolled to ~25 feet for an eagle putt. Lipped out the eagle putt but never going to complain about tap in birdies.  It was one of those shots that I've done before and was a perfect yardage gap. I have a punch 4 iron swing that I know goes right at 185, and I can cut the ball much easier than I can draw it, so it was actually a much easier shot for me than it appears to be in the picture. I would have been fine if it would have over cut too, rough isn't very penal here so it would have been an easy chip from short right.  Although to be fair I didn't realize/remember that the water cut in as far into the fairway as it did, I thought it stopped right around the left edge of the green. 
    • I absolutely LOVE my new Titliest U505 3 iron.  It was slightly chunky looking at first, but I don't even notice it anymore after just a couple rounds with it. It's super easy to launch it high and I have no issues flighting it down either.  Perfectly fine to hit off the tee for tighter tee shots and for 2nd shots into par 5s. Even the mishits go much further than I think they should, it's quite forgiving.
    • Obviously I'm not you and you have a far more mature swing than mine, but swing length is an issue for me as well if you see my swing thread. What I'm finding is more the difference between arm plane (vertical) and shoulder plane (flat), more the arm runs off (length) uncontrolled. It could be coincidence.
