Thanks for all the responses - this is really helpful. It sounds like there is kind of a range which makes sense.
When I'm travelling with my partner, she does slow me down too. I'm limited to 1-2 courses in a day, but we do a lot of other fun things in the area we're visiting so it's great. I too will happily eat something quick/snack for lunch but by dinner time I want some real food.
I was thinking about it more last night and I think I just need to re-center myself a little bit. Work has been really busy lately and that kind of mindset (go go go) has been bleeding into my life outside of work, and feeding the diehard bagger in me. I'm very fortunate to have a remote job so I'm actually trying to mostly work on this trip - but that's another adjustment that is probably feeding the burnout.
I think I'm happiest when I'm still blending in any other stuff I want to see and do, in addition to playing a lot of disc golf. Huge respect for those of you like @Pizza God who drive overnight and nap in rest stops to get to new courses. Very impressive. That sounds like too much to me for sure, but maybe when I have played as many courses as you have I'll get to that point haha. I think that what feels right for me *right now* is more along the lines of what @Ryal said. Plan it out day by day but keep it kind of loose. I only get to do a handful of these trips each year.
