I understand on the water issue. I honestly believe you place a cup in watter in the fairway and I could put my ball in it (maybe thats what I need to stay in the F/W). As for the pond or lake, I try to make sure I take one more club up to give me room for error to get the ball over the water. This has worked for me. I also try not to think about hitting the water and focus more on my target. I remember one time my very last swing thought was "dont put it in the water" and that is exatly what I did. It is amazing how that last swing thought can often come true.
