I go by 13/14mph for one grid box This is is alot more accurate to what I have found with draw and fade. If you have a side wind coming from the right of 10mph and use 1 box of fade on the drive the ball will move slightly fade as you have compensated too much. I will ride the wind in most scenarios but when you have a high wind and no room off the tee to do this, I tend to compensate with draw/fade

Thanks for the clarification Rulz, I have done minimal tests of this, more of a feel thing for me.

I have noticed no difference with the most recent updates and I am still using the same adjustments as I have used for the past few months

I've noticed a difference with the new update.
I was experimenting tonight the best I could but I found the following
3wd - 5i is about 14mph for one box of fade 6i - 8i is about 12-13mph one box of fade 9i - lw is about 10-11 one box of fade.
I was finding I was having to add more fade to lower clubs than previously. It would be correct that you have to add more fade for a LW compared to 3I because it's in the air longer.
Ideally you'd be able to create a practice hole with a specific wind in GNCD to experiment.

the 3i is in the air longer than any other iron or wedge.

New player here to TGC Tours, but have you guys found these calcs to be similar with the new update? Thanks! I have found a slight difference in the calcs since the update.. Pre-update, I used one box of fade/draw for a 12mph crosswind... and the shot would stay straight for the entire ball flight.. Since the update, is the fade/draw does not last for the entire shot like it used to.. The wind seems to take over on the last 3rd of the ball flight. And one box of fade is now 13-14mph of cross wind.

And one box of fade is now 13-14mph of cross wind. This is exactly what is happening now. I also notice that putts as they slow towards the hole break a bit more.

I'm experimenting with draw and fade for the first time. Is it just me or if you have set up to fade or draw and you shank it, even just a bit, it stays well and truly shanked?

Yes. Take note of the red cone on the right. When you add fade or draw the cone becomes narrower, meaning you have to be extra accurate with your swing - this is the trade-off.
