Seems like quite a few of us in the CC's were only getting single digit winds in practice for Fraxinus.
Le Golf National is currently serving up winds as high as 17 mph. Get in some practice while it's hot!

I find myself doing this as well - if I find an event with high winds I'm all over it trying to get more comfortable in hurricane conditions. Weakest part of my game if my scoring patterns are any indication...as soon as the winds go down the crazy low scores come out. But any bit of wind and I'm spayed and neutered!

I just play the one with the most plays. On the PC this is probably one or two hundred plays.

So I just played a practice round tonight in only 5-7mph winds and I have to say this is a tough course, especially if wind is high. Lot of tight fairways and water. A course where accuracy will certainly count quite a bit.

And you made the wind charts! You'd be amazed at how little I play these days - as the site got more popular (and workload increased) my scores get worse! Seems like my ability to play in the wind was the first thing to go!

Can I change my name to Dustin Johnson?
Playing in 10-13 winds, end of 16'th hole I'm -8 In game leader board is -6 best. I'm thinking I am going to beat that, as well as having a bogey free round.
17'th bogey 18'th bogey---which should have been a double but I nailed a 35 foot putt for the bogey.
Now I'm choking in practice rounds lol
edit
that was the "tour a" course

Practiced two rounds last night. Both had 13ish winds. +2 on first, -2 on next. Hopefully I can get some more wind tonight, as I want to go around again.

Both Tour A and Tour B are playing 10-13 mph winds for the last few hours.
I shot -6 on both courses today, which will translate to +3 during the tournament when I Dustin Johnson it.
Saw/heard something weird. Playing Orions ghost on tour B 2'ND hole (par 3) I tee off, I hear someone hit the pin, as I was following closely behind I see his ball go in the hole. 2'nd shot though he is putting from a foot or two away, score card reflected a 2 and not the hole in one I saw...weird

I went around in a 68 (PB) in average 10mph winds on Tour A. Set up a Tour on PC with winds 7-9mph/10-12mph/10-12mph/13+mph in each round respectively. Haven't been able to replicate that 68 yet in the Tour set up.

I haven't seen the severe wind, or even the medium wind come to think of it. I've only had 6-7mph. That still doesn't mean that I have bettered a 69 on this track. May not be my week again next week!!!
