  Hi all,

  Just started to play WGT after quite a few months and need the cob webs removed about calculating W&E (wind&elevation). Has there been a simple and quick formula now used for the two? I misplaced or lost my papers on this matter and want to get back into playing again.

  I also see there is a new thing that shows uneven lies. In real golf I know which way the ball will go with a side hill lie and have tried it on WGT and it looks correct, but that's another animal to get into.

  So could anybody update in on the W&E?

  Thanks.

  General concept of elevation is add or subtract a yard for every 3 feet of elevation for medium lofted clubs. Less if clubs are high lofted. Wind would take me forever to explain.
