If you are playing golf at Cobble Beach you will find out quickly that the wind is a major factor. There are a couple of key things that will make you successful when playing in the wind;
1. Take a few extra clubs and swing ¾ quarter. Most of my students will not take enough club and swing too hard at the ball. All this does is put you off balance and it adds spin to the golf ball which in turn makes the ball go higher.
2. If you set up 1 ½ closer to the ball, the ball will fly lower. This will help your ball stay below the wind which will help you.
3. To get that long drive down wind, set up 1 ½ inches farther from the ball. This will dramatically increase the height of your shot.
