  Hey WGT and all concerned,i think it would be a great idea to add "ZERO" wind condition as an option when setting up tournaments both in CC tournys and all forms of regular play,,,the wind doesn't blow every dang day.......I recall not long ago there were occasional no wind tourny's.I'm sure the majority of WGT players would WELCOME this as a great and over due addition to the game,,,,,oh and consider formatting the game for a "Scramble" format as well,,,,,,,,,Thanks......Dave

  I get tired of fighting the wind every single day in reality most days of the year are fairly calm or no wind at all,thought this game wanted to be as real as possible? if so add a no wind option and a scramble format,,,,,,,

  I suggested this very same thing years ago . Even though there are some  0 - 2 mph winds the fact yet remains . The wind doesnt blow all the time and every single day . So yes it should be included in the game settings and for all types of play . I doubt that it will happen but it really needs too .

  Also the entire game should have the same game settings as in the country clubs . CTTH should have a practice setting with the mulligan feature as well .So there are improvements that could be made to the game .

  The main reason for the strong winds are for sell balls (mostly from back tee's), head winds means low distances & affect a lot in Drives, & in the approachs the tail winds force you to play with a ''fake spined'' ball, that why you can see too much often head winds in ''long'' hole's, & tail wind in lot of par 3

  Also the amount of wind are accord to tiers, WGT set ALL the parameters of a round based in tiers, tee's distances...green speed, & also the WIND, of course whould be nice play with different amount of wind & even with zero wind, but...SADLY, this game never wants get close to real Golf & conditions, is just a Golf themed game working like a cash machine

  I enjoy this game, but when i want play Golf close to ''real'' i set a round in the marvelous Links2003  :)
