    You can't. The conditions are set when the host creates the game. They can not be changed, As far as i know the only thing that changes is the tees, If I remember correctly every player tees off from his tier's tees,

    well, I just played an alt shot game at Kiawah and the wind was never more than 10 mph. On some holes it was 1 - 3 mph. How is that possible?

    It's not very breezy at Kiawah.  Bethpage is farily calm, too.

    But, St. Andrews and RSG, even with light wind, will have breezes of 8 - 18 mph or so.  Chambers Bay, Wolf Creek, and Pebble are not far behind.

    Congressional, Oakmont, and Merion are pretty much in the middle.

    "Light wind" doesn't mean the same mph on each course --- neither does "heavy."

    I can remember back in the day when WGT set some weekly tournaments with 0 (zero) wind. Hard to imagine St. A with no wind but it did happen.

    It would also be nice to have the challenge mode in Alt Shot.

    Interesting idea, never thought about it.   :-)
