While there are a moderate number of bunkers, focusing on your bunker play during practice sessions will help you navigate these hazards confidently.

How does wind affect play at Weissinger Hills Golf Course?

The prevailing wind at Weissinger Hills Golf Course typically comes from the South-West, which plays a significant role in club selection and shot strategy throughout your round.

Being able to work the ball—shaping shots left or right to counteract the wind—is a valuable skill that will help you navigate the course more effectively. Adjusting your yardage calculations and club selection based on wind conditions, along with understanding how to keep the ball under the wind when necessary, can help you avoid costly mistakes and score better.
