To start, focus on your tempo. A smooth, consistent tempo helps you develop a feel for distance. Try to maintain a steady rhythm, even for different length shots. This will help you gauge the distance and speed of the shot more accurately. Your body's natural motion is also essential. Let your body's rotation and weight transfer help you generate power and control. This will help you maintain a consistent stroke and develop a feel for the shot.
