I think I am starting to see what you are saying. I previously carried a 1 iron really up to this season. On the fairway, it was a solid club, provided that you give it a bit of respect. In the woods, I was about to feed it through the smallest of gaps as well as shape the shot. The difference was very mind set. On the fairway, I was more concerned about the quality of the strike. In the woods, I was more focused on the target.
I remember long ago that I tried to play my 1 iron out of the woods by taking dead aim at a tree thinking that a slight miss hit would cause me to miss the tree. 9 out of the 10 times, I hit the tree. I quickly learned that to get out of the woods really does not have to do with how big the gap is, but how well defined your is target and don't target anything you don't want to hit. Honestly, I did loose this mindset early this year, but adding a specific target for the recovery quickly solve this problem.
On par 3, I am rather obsessed with target and now boosting a 2.7 stroke average for them this season. Fairway, particularly greater than 175 yards, I could actually do a lot better on targeting.
