Observation / Winds During Ranked Rounds

  Hi...I have noted that every ranked round I have played has high winds on every course all the time...this of course is NOT real world...is there a way you can make the winds more random in the game so that lower winds are more common for inland courses and generally higher for lakeside / oceanside courses.

  I used to have a game called JN6 / Golden Bear Challenge where the person setting up the match could also set winds / fog / green speed / etc., and this worked well I thought.

  Thanks,

  I doubt that they will modify the game on your behalf, but some of your concerns are taken care of.

  In general terms, wind is set up in classes like low, medium, high for games and tournaments. Actual wind speeds vary between courses, so on STA it will be stronger than on BPB. Between tracks through a given game, wind is random in pace and direction.

  Wind may be set up by us players in practice games and in CC tournaments.
