Hey guys and gals,
Playing for a few days now and no matter how I adjust the shot im out driven by a good 30yrds from most tee shots. Always when using drive obviously. Ive raised loft to catch more wind and such like but am always behind, and it is confusing me. Any suggestions are appreciated and just for good measure my putting sucks hehehe

Assuming you're hitting it reasonably straight and at 100% power it probably just so happens the ghosts you were playing had a tailwind when they played that particular course.
If you're carrying it 265-270 in still conditions then you're fine.
Putting - many of us have been playing for a year or more and never got the hang of it so just keep at it....

That is correct, wind changes globally but is different at different times. It depends when you play your shots. Soon a patch will be live which will give everyone playing in tournaments(Not single rounds) very similar winds so you won't see it happening by such margins then. Having said that however I don't think we should have ghost balls turned on when doing tournaments.

Ghost balls are recordings of other players rounds, they could have been played hours, days, weeks, months ago, and would have had different wind conditions when they played, when you load up a ghost ball, it is just a recording of their previously played round, the wind you are playing in at the time has no influence on the result of the ghostballs shot, it only effects your ball.
