SAM - That's an interesting point - about goals shifting. Is it a conscious thought or just part of the game for you now?

Does anyone else do this as well?

It has always been part of the game. If I go out and start bogey-double-bogey-bogey, I am 5 over thru 4 and ain't much goin' right. The key then is to latch onto a par somehow, and then another - once I get back under 'bogey' I can refocus on new goals. While par is the object, it seems that 76 is the number that always felt like the high end of respectability, even today as my handicap has slid from scratch to 4.
