Terrible turbulence and bouncing on approach

Ok, so this has been discussed previously. And ok, I can understand that it is based on actual physics. But was what discussed before, was it agreed the severity of the shaking is correct? I watch a whole lot of YouTube videos and you just don’t see people struggling to maintain course. I was flying a bush trip this weekend, and at one point I was thrown 24 degrees off my heading, The weather for the base bush trips, you know they don’t put you in windy weather. This was all from the new dynamics. And it seemed too exaggerated. On a calm day, even if it is sunny, it doesn’t seem right that I should be fighting so hard to maintain heading. I just don’t see that in other aviation YouTubes. But if real pilots sign off that this is how it really happens, that yes, you can be thrown 24 degrees off course by the sun heating the ground, then ok…
