Today I broke par for the first time, I shot a 69 from the forward tees 5000 yards and it was fun and I really felt how fun this game can be when you score. The changing feeling's and the focus on one shot at a time was fun. My alignments where great I didn’t have to try an overpower the course I could be smooth at one time I was 5 under but got so excited that I overcooked a 8 iron to a back bunker on a par 3 and wedge it up under the lip and took a double. So that brought me back down to earth; I settled down and pared out for the next 5 holes but they all were Birdie putts, how about that... Well now I will move to the next set of tees 5600 and I will try to go low from there.
I love this forum the scoring zone and the playing the game section.

Perhaps that post should go in the 'holies and polies' part of the forum!

I have had a mental block keeping me from going low/breaking par for my entire life.................
So I tried this today in the rain (wanted a quick 18 ) I played from the red tees and shot 64! also I love this as a drill for finding problem areas,,,, mine is my wedge game, since I dont knock flags from close range. Looking forward to moving back, and then shooting scores from the tips now that I know what it feels like

I can't remember who told me this, but they were close to Nicklaus and his family and this person swore that Nicklaus used to make sure that he played a round or two off the reds at his home course before a big tournament because he wanted to get that mindset of 'scoring.'

Way to go!!! Keep up the good work and positive feelings going. Knowing you "overcooked" a shot under pressure is a great thing and you will remember it in the future. Keep us posted.
