I am unclear how those of us seeking site guidance are helped by being told to fly if it "feels right". That sounds similar to "take a punt" or "what's the worst that can happen".
Not at all. Imagine you're on holiday in Scotland where you can pretty much take off from anywhere - you look at a map, see a hill/mountain that looks suitable, hike up it, assess the conditions at your take off area, maybe walk around a bit if it's a bowl to check the true wind direction, and if it "feels right" (ie. on the hill, not too gusty etc), you take off. Simples. No need for a site guide, compass or wind meter. If you're not happy then you walk down again. If you're not experienced enough to decide for yourself then you stick to regular sites where others are flying.
