If you don't feel the distance, then learn how to see it with this visualization drill.

I like using feel references as my go-to way of controlling distance. Typically, golfers feel 3 different finesse wedge distances:

Knee Height
Hip Height
Belly Button Height

But not everyone does well with a feel system. For some of my students, we'll use more of a visual approach. To visualize distance control, you want to visualize the apex of the shot. You'll want to see both the height of the apex and the location, then just try and hit the ball through your apex hoop and you'll be knocking your wedges close in no time.
