    Just played Pinehurst. Had tailwinds on the first 4 holes. Reached the green on no. 4 and missed a 14 ft bird. Cross winds for the rest of the front 9. Had a head winds or quartering head winds for all of the back 9. Couldn't make a bird to save my a$$. Game really keeps you guessing.

    Thanks for the comments, Sorry took so long to get back to reply. I do work a lot and I only do have a small window of opportunity for my tee times.  To know whats coming is in some ways a plus, I can look at the winds off the first and know what 's next. but it than gets to the boring part of the game for me, it's just repetition and I don't like doing the same thing over and over again to aspect a different result, that will drive a man insane.(wink,wink. nudge,nudge). 

    I'll move on from here I always do, Spirits High. pjschaub

    Why is it that every time I play a single game with high winds the bloody wind is in my face and when I get to the par 3's it's at the back 16-19 mile an hour. I get to the par 5's and guess what? In my face. I can play 20 games and every time in my face.

    Is it me, pjschaub

    You want the simple answer?

    YES. I always get the 3mph face winds and Hurricane force tail winds.    

    All joking aside though.

    NO. Today in an AS game on Best of Whatever - you know, the one with Andy's 17 - the wind said 10 into face - I timed out because I didn't know what to do. Everyone was yelling at me to SHOOT!! - I said, "I can't - I'm confused."  They all laughed - I was serious though.

    So I make the drive, finally with like 6 secs left on the clock- and don't you know it - all that peer pressure caused me to drive the damn ball into suite 334. Yep

    Opponent steps up to the tee..SMACK !  I see the ball lands just past the hotel, bounced and the darn thing shot across the FW like a rocket right into the Fescue on the left.  I read: WTF ??? NO WAY !! 

    I type: Were you were confused too? 

    LOL

    +1 Did exactly the same thing last week with a 25mph head wind. Lost a ball, ended up going left on my 2nd attempt and shot +5 for the hole.
