 Perfect weather may not always be in the forecast when playing golf. To
improve their games, golfers must learn to adapt to weather changes. In
particular, developing techniques to play in windy conditions will
completely change a golfer’s success rate in achieving par or under par.
For instance, when playing into the wind , golfers should use a heavier club
swing and lean toward a club that has less loft. In doing so, the ball will
travel further and at a lower height, which will reduce the wind resistance
against the golf ball.

 A good way to determine wind speed and direction is to sprinkle blades of
grass at eye level. This helps players adjust their golf stroke to achieve the
desired distance. Case in point, knowing that there is 10 miles per hour of
tail wind, a golfer can calculate that a ball that would typically travel 250
yards in still conditions will have an increased distance by approximately
nine yards.
