  Can someone explain to me how it is possible to have the wind against you on 14/15 holes. I just played the 2nd round of the Cutter& Buck and on 14 to 15 of the holes the wind was against me. I thought that these courses were supposed to play as realistically as the real course.

  It's not how they work here. Each hole has random wind, supposedly to stop people restarting until they get a wind set that they like.

  Might be a little late here but those kind of winds really suit the clubs you're using-they're good stopping winds. With Starter gear and that extra spin ball you use, take more club and put back spin on the ball and you'll be able to stop a lot of your approaches.  :-)

  I'd kill for a headwind that often.  I already drive like a 10 year old girl, so I'd welcome the stopping power.

  This is WGT, anything is possible and doesn't have to be realistic--and probably won't be.

  I doubt mind rubbish conditions just as long as I knew it was the same for everyone else in the same comp, which it isn't at the moment.

  They can't set wind as per RL hole locations.  The St Andy's 9s are pretty much all north(F9) or south(B9) facing so in those unlimited 9 hole comps, people would just keep restarting until they get a decent constant tailwind.
