Notice how the extended range nozzles jump from under 10 inches at drift at 10 mph winds, to over 20 inches of drift for the 0.15 capacity nozzle.  This can be accounted for, because of the finer mist fan of the nozzle.  Also, notice how the spray drift of these are not not consistent with the wind speeds.

The Tubo TeeJet nozzles stayed fairly consistent in the distance of drift, up to wind speeds of 30 mph.  At zero wind, there was less than five inches of drift from the Turbo TeeJet nozzles, thanks to the forward spraying design of these nozzles.

The air induction nozzles were the most consistent in the amount of drift sprayed at 20 PSI.  However, the amount of drift recorded from these nozzles are not much better than that of the extended range or Turbo TeeJet nozzles.  This is because the air induction tips are meant for a much higher operating pressure (like 60 PSI), then the other two nozzles.
