  Hi all,

  Anyone know if there is the possibility of download on internet a transparent protractor to be placed on the game to better identify the degree of wind direction?

  Thx

  Hi Gabriele,

  I tried something similar when I was new and ambitious at the beginning many years ago but you know what? Don't. It's not worth it.

  The problem is the wind direction indicator (arrow) is not 100% accurate to start with. Sometimes it changes in accordance with camera angles and sometimes it doesn't unless the camera angles are dratically different or opposite to each other, front & rear views for instance so just take it as a rough guideline but never as a definite or ultimate game changer, you'll be very disappointed and exhausted otherwise.

  I've personally compromised with a clock face like this one here.

  

  Good luck.

  I have seen this being used before if you are really determined to have one, but it looks a bit old and may not work with newer operating systems. You can try it before you buy it.

  You bet. A friend request sent.

  A reply that "makes your day", especially when it's from a player of this calibre.

  Thank you, Yiannis. 🙏
