Ive posted this a few times in different threads, but the best advice I have ever been given and implemented was to just get to the 150 yard marker. On each hole I play, I look at what I need to do to get to 150 yards. Whether it's Driver, Fairway Wood, Hybrid or an Iron, my goal is to get there. This has helped me work on staying in the fairway and allowed me to work through the course, rather than just bang driver out there on every hole. I feel comfortable at 150 yards, and it gives me a good scoring opportunity.

Another Course Management strategy is that of aiming for the middle of the green. Depending on the hole, aiming to the middle of the green allows me to avoid trouble (water, sand, etc) and still give me a good shot at making my putt. I have gotten away from this over the past few months, as I have worked on my short game and feel comfortable with going at pins at times, but when in doubt, I aim for the middle of the green.
The highlighted line is key. Unless the greens are huge you should not have too long of a putt at any given hole.
