Paddlefisher:
could someone please enlighten me as to why some approach shots(170) carry then the next hole plus 10 wind they don't likewise with tee shots par 3 st Andrews 19 mph played accordingly - 20 but shot carried full distance..ive spent hard earned money to play and enjoy but seem to get very frustrated by the lack of consistency putting the same seems to be breaks you don't see..no whining just asking..
Its called VEM . Go to the search box on this page ,and type in VEM . Then read to your hearts content on this subject . You will even find a copy of the VEM patent and how it is supposed to be used in this game . Also learn to play half of what the wind indicator shows . If it shows 10 , play it as 5 . If it shows 20 , play it as 10 . This way , you will only be half off of the distance . If you can , do the surveys and videos for your credits . Dont spend your hard earned money on this flim flam game . Hope this helps . Happy Swinging :)
