happymt: don, I'm sure they are trying to bounce it off the hills and finding out that most are out of bounds
Has to be something like that.
The first round I played, I lost a ball. I simply misjudged the helping effect of the wind and hit it through the fairway. I haven't lost a ball since then.
And during the most recent clash, the wind was pretty high (on most holes, it was > 20 MPH). I managed a decent score (32) and didn't lose a single ball.
