JOURNAL
Your Journal to P.A.R.
The Invisible Par
$14.99
Patience / Acceptance / Resilience
The P.A.R. Method pairs the philosophy of Patience, Acceptance, and Resilience with journaling for self-reflection and personal growth. Use this journal to explore your experiences, notice patterns, and choose your next steps. Go at your own pace.
Reflection can help you understand your decisions, recognize emotional patterns, and guide your next practice. Journaling does not guarantee a specific improvement in golf performance or a set number of strokes off your score.

FOR YOUNGER JUNIOR GOLFERS & PARENTS
Journey to P.A.R.
A story to read, reflect on, and grow together
$19.99
Patience / Acceptance / Resilience
Ten-year-old Jones loves golf, but his first tournaments bring bad bounces, missed putts, and big emotions. With his dad beside him as his caddie, he learns to handle setbacks, notice his self-talk, and find joy in the game—whatever his score.
Designed for parents and younger junior golfers to read together, this illustrated story includes guided prompts and space to write or draw reflections. Share meaningful conversations about Jones’s experiences and your own, on the course and beyond.
Every round brings challenges. Every challenge is a chance to practice P.A.R.

Two ways to use it: work through the activities at your own pace with a parent or coach, or pair it with college consulting through The Midwest Forecaddie for personal feedback and guidance.
