I know this is an ancient thread, but a couple of points. I also find BPB on the whole easier than Kiawah.
Often, a strange reaction to wind is triggered by imprecision in the clubs. If you have a slight wind blowing left to right, and you have a low precision club, and the low precision causes it to start right, the wind will exaggerate the drift. So, because of a low precision rating, a ding can still go off line, and if it heads off line with the wind, the wind will push it farther that way.
