  Ok I really need to know what is going on with the tail wind situation every shot i have with a tail wind goes no where doesnt matter what club (except driver and 3w) that I use the ball goes what i hit it no carry. Lets say i have 179 to pin i think im going to get some extra distance from the tail wind so i will use my 165 club with 50% back spin to try and slow it a little when it hits the green. Well guess what it went 169???????? that makes absolutely no sense to me.

  It happens with all irons and wedges so has you WGT changed the program to knock shots down with tail wind now and get no carry at all or basically no carry?

  Also it doesnt matter if the shot is dinged or not.

  In your example you're clubbing 14 yards short and didn't mention the tailwind speed. 10,20,30mph or what? What's the elevation difference from fairway to pin?

  *** Edit***

  I just saw you have those new Nike Irons. Seen quite a few complaints about them. Perhaps they're the problem?

  I've noticed, with my games. The new Nike irons can be really fickled. I'll have a game where they are lethal and the next game they are all over the place. WGT is like a box of chocolate, you never know what you will get. At least I don't. Again, the reason I play for fun only.

  Sorry forgot to mention some of these shots r with an 18 tail wind and no carry, ive been playin long enough that with no wind should be able to throw darts... most of the time....lol

  And how r the max balls rocks?

  Ive used all other balls and these perform just as gd as the nikes and or callys.

  Glad I'm not the only one.
