I have been trying to shoo under 110 so basically play double bogey golf, and I have bee struggling between two different mindsets. Should I set realistic goals and play for double bogey every hole, or should I go for par and let my mistakes be what keeps me from getting it? So I am wondering how you mentaly play the game do you think that you will get par or do you play to get a different number maybe bogey or on in GIR+1 or something like that...

I think you have the right mindset of wanting to achieve a goal. You can start with breaking 110 and then just keep going down to 100 and etc. I always have the goal of trying to breaking 80. I've done it numerous times but I'm happy with that goal till next hear my goal will be to shoot par every round.
