Funneling wind speeds into golf course ratings - a podcast by RNZ

NIWA meteorologist Dr Richard Turner has charted the average wind speed of our golf courses. Going off data from studies of wind patterns for research done for building codes Dr Turner helped Golf NZ figure out the difficulties of each course on a windy day, to funnel into course ratings and handicap rankings. Dr Turner also talks to Kathryn about where in the country the maddening spring winds are worse and where you can escape them.
