    19 yards from pin, big uphill roll onto green, on fairway; 10-12 wind in your face; what do you do.  My guess was hit it 29 yards full swing with  backspin and should get close to pin. AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH WRONG AGAIN, went 14 yards (yes, I dinged it).

    90 yards to pin, no elevation change, 11-13 tailwind, hit it 86 yards and dinged it again.  EHHHHHHHHHH wrong again it goes 83 yards.

    WTF is goin on here.  

    I'm ready to donate to special abilities charity for programmers here.  I think they need it bad.

    my calcs come out to very roughly power required 84.0637456 yards:).....................your shot went 83...no BS settings identified by you but nothing wrong with the game there.

    Shot type employed ? BS settings ? % power....wedge used ... .........First one game is fine, but not enough inf supplied by you here to comment properly.

    See website via my page for some basic wind calcs or search forums for loads on it.  After that sounds like you need to map your wedges for full shots, punches, pitches etc..........Going just by the the first example where I had enough inf to comment....My wedges are bango accurate, no need to guess anything..
