    I've noticed a disturbing trend lately.  Whenever i hit a shot with a jaw-dropping result (such as no distance effect from a 20 mph head- or tailwind, a slightly-missed ding resulting in an 80 yard shot deflection, or, my favorite, a dinged shot into a 20 mph crosswind that lands 30 yards upwind of the aimer), almost invariably the NEXT shot will be a successful 40 foot putt or 150 yard hole-out or some other such nonsense.

    Please WGT, could you tone down the shot-manipualtion so that I can at least feel like I'm playing a game  rather than making it plainly obvious that I'm not?  Thank you.

    yup...I played a round last night and my 3 wood went 270+yrds and my 3 iron only went 219 yrds in low wind... LMAO.........among other silly distances with other clubs. For this reason I dont play much anymore. Their loss...less ball usage by me.

    Guess that explains why today at #10 at BPB into a 7 - 9 left to right crosswind my approach shot went 35 yds to the right…or my approach on #1 at TP into a 8 - 10 mph right to left cross wind finished 8 yds to the right of the pin. Thought I was alone with this.
