I played a course today with 30 mph winds (there's a severe wind threat issued for the southeast US today) and even my wind driver (Banshee) couldn't handle the winds. My Roc also, with a super strong hyzer on it, would go right in the headwind. I'm talking about the angle of the roc being more than 45 degrees from the horizontal.
I saw one guy's drive turn around and circle back and land behind the tee a couple of hundred feet.
What can we do to handle this kind of wind? Will a very overstable disc do it, or is it too much to expect of any disc?
From a distance, after the round, I think I saw a couple of guys throw some thumbers or tomahawks that seemed to drill right through the 30 mph headwind. Is that the throw we need to use? Does it work with tailwind as well?
