Field work instead maybe?
I know I was doing it wrong when i first started doing mids and putter rounds. I was trying to still have birdie looks on every hole (granted my home courses are all short enough I could try) But I always found trouble on the longer or boarder line longer holes. I hand an epiphany about it after a while I'm not trying to score my best scores i'm trying to throw finicky discs well. Concentrate on throwing to the right spot and get the flight you can manage out of the slower discs. DON"T try for extra distance work on good throws. The distance comes eventually.
That is where I get frustrated. I get to holes where there is no right spot within my putter range. Maybe what I need to do is lay out a plan like someone might do for a tournament. Maybe that will let keep a better attitude and still have fun while I'm shooting 6 or 10 strokes worse that normal, instead of just seething because I'm jump putting a tee shot on a 450 foot hole to stay in bounds or I'm throwing a 50-75 foot pitch out 2nd shot because I wasn't able to throw my drive past the trouble. Or maybe I allow myself to throw something like a Teebird (versus a Ballista or Destroyer) on those couple of holes, so I at least have a shot at getting my drive in position for a par.
