That's what I thought I would have to do - remove the strike and
chisel a new opening in the strike. I've been a little hesitant in
doing this, but I think since all I have to do is move the strike 1/4
of an inch or so, hopefully I won't have to chisel that much and make
things worse. Though I don't think I can do much harm, as long as I
don't chisel where the strike needs to be screwed in.

it's frequently hard to drill new holes if they are close to the existing
holes. you have to plug the existing holes with something. glue in a golf
tee

This could be expensive. First you have to join a golf club and
that's hundreds of dollars, thousands for a really fancy one.

or dowel, let harden overnight, and drill the new holes in the correct
place..
