    Default When the wind gets up ....

    I suppose this question relates to the persons who (normally) play the spinny premium balls (eg. Pro V1 rather than Pro V1x).

    If you get to the course & the wind is up, do you change to a lower spin ball?

    If not, do you do anything different than normal?

    Comments??

    Nope. Just hit it and let the technology take care of the rest.

    I struggle with distance control, miss more greens and have a higher score.

    Used to think I would play every hole on the course down wind if I could, changed my mind, down wind sux.
    It's almost always windy at my home course, it makes it harder for everyone.
    No change in ball though.
    If it wasn't for those damn putters......

    I hit a high ball normally, and have found that the ProV1 doesn't really get affected that much more than a less spinny ball.

    Well, that's how it pans out for me anyway
