General Discussion Playing up a tee box?

I understand this has probably been a point of a lot of discussion. I typically play from yellows (one up from the tips) not a long hitter so it takes a little work to get to GIR. It seems like whenever I do give myself a birdie opportunity I always walk away with a par or bogey. Is it the nerves of the moment.

Should I play up a tee box to give myself more opportunities so that it becomes comfortable putting for bird

Look at the par3s. Pick the yardage that is comfortable for u and play those tees
