As well known, on the rare occasion the wind can pick up at Lonsdale Links<\/a>\u2026<\/p>\n

Here are a few tips to help you conquer those blustery conditions and ensure you’re giving yourself the greatest chance to play your best<\/a>.<\/p>\n

1. \u201cWhen its breezy, swing it easy!\u201d<\/span><\/h2>\n

Just as the quote states, swinging it easy in the wind will allow you to have more control over the golf ball. How is this so? Swinging the club easy, or slower, in windy conditions will bring down the spin rate on the golf ball meaning it wont fly as high or cause as much side spin. This will result in the golf ball flying straighter and not be buffered around in the wind, opposed to a shot hit with full power and height.<\/p>\n\n\t\t
