Re: Turn the wind off option

  Now we have Mulligans (many thanks) how about an 'off' option for the wind in practice mode only? This would make it easier for us to dial in our clubs. Or even better, (again in practice mode only) how about select your own wind and direction option.

  I've just purchased the wonderful new SLDR driver and as usual I went to St Andrews #1 to dial in the distances, of course the least wind I could get was 8mph so I had to continually end round and reload until I got the headwind, and then the tailwind (to average out the difference). If you HAVE to have a financial return for this (as opposed to just keeping your customers happy) perhaps you could make the ball hits +3 when the wind is adjusted?

  Not the best course for dialing in clubs.  Seems to me everything at StA is faster, fairways and greens.  Highly recommend Bethpage B9, holes 10-11-12, with 12 being the best.  You can hit up and down the fairway for 13-14 shots before the shot maximum is reached.  On BPB F9, #7 is another good one for hitting up and down a reasonably level fairway.  This is strictly IMHO.

  If you set up a low wind tournament in a CC you ofter get winds as low as 1mph on Kiawah. Apart from that you'd have to wait for a no wind WGT tournament to come along.
