  Does anyone have a link to a list of stimpmeters for all greens speeds?

  Also, I'm wondering if  those shot tips that were posted by WGT and members are still accurate, considering the recent changes on WGT.  For instance, the effect of wind seems to have changed.   Anyone?

  Thanks in advance.

  Send a message to DaddysKat......she can help you out. The things she did while she was in our CC were amazing.

  Definitely. The old calcs seem to still work for RSG and StA. The others seem to be down about 14% in general, but the wind has become much more variable. Occasionally, I even get shots that bend into the wind. 

  Additionally, the effect of the rough has changed. I seem to get more flyers lately. In real life I can generally anticipate these, due to grain, etc. Alas, not on WGT. It does, I guess, make the game more like real golf. The unexpected does happen.

  Stimpmeter. This was before Championship speeds which are 13.0.
