For a Quarter-wind I take the square root of the headwind adjustment and multiply it by the wind strength. For example, a 10-MPH 45-degree quarter-wind playing left-to-right and against me: (between 4 and 5 o'clock) with a 5I from the fairway: For Distance5I = 181 yd Wind: 10 MPH, 4:30 (betw 4 and 5 o'clock) Headwind Factor: 1.8 (this varies by club) SQRT(1.8) * 10 = 1.34 * 10 = 13.4 yd. My 5I will carry 167.6 yards. For Direction1 Box DRAW + 13 MPH left-to-right wind = 0 Yds (L-R) Wind: 10 MPH, 4:30 (betw 4 and 5 o'clock) (10/13) / SQRT(2) = 10/13 / 1.4 = 55% of 1 box LEFT Damn... this reminds me of my math exams in the past!

For cross winds here is what I do:
*Move marker over* "This looks about right I suppose"
I will use the draw and fade some to counteract some of the cross wind on occasion, though.
