Always remember "Into the breeze swing with ease"

In windy conditions esp over here play your normal shot but think of a few things before you hit

- wind direction
- wind speed
- into the wind do you have enough club
- with the wind should you drop down a club

Most importantly trust your shots

All of this was one of the reasons playing with you in Myrtle was so fun, watching you adapt to entirely different conditions and course style.

I'm not good enough to change anything so I hit and hope. At most I'll aim a little more into the wind unless it's from my right, then I just hit the fade and let it ride. This is something I need to learn about more because quite honestly it gets windy down here in the late spring and stupid me hits a 58* wedge into the green, cursing all the while as it drifts 20 yards off target.
