Playing into the wind means that you need to be able to hit a shot with lower trajectory. Sure, take a longer club but simple ball position choices can make a difference.
When you try to lower your launch, make sure you keep the club face square as you lean the handle forward. I see may players try hit the ball lower by closing the face (turning the toe to the left for a right-handed player). Don’t do this because if the face is closed at impact, the ball may fly a little lower, but it’s also going to start left of the target line (for right-handers).
