Pull the pin. Every time. Leaving the pin in was a nod to Covid where we weren’t supposed to touch anything. I hated Covid and I hate anything that reminds me of Cofid.
I’ve had lots of putts hit the pin like OP and stay out. I have never missed a putt and said “Damn, should’ve left the pin in”.

Don’t worry bro, it may not have gone in, but I’ve hit enough putts in my life to tell you that was a make, 1000%.

Pull the flag next time.

It boggles my mind how people can putt with the flag in. It gives a whole different look to the putt, and causes more misses than makes. Unless its a downhill breaker, pull the flag every time brother.

Pull the pin brother.
Pull the flag
I feel your pain, I can tell you that the second time I had a birdie putt the flag was taken out
Why would you leave the pin in?
Because they were playing in a scramble. Does that really count as a birdie?
Take your glove off you animal!
This was basically me on Sunday, about to get my first eagle ever.
Literally the same distance, lipped out on the left.
Pushed it a bit, wind’s off the left
Pull the pin and take the glove off. The golf gods taught you a lesson here.
Should have taken the glove off….rookie mistake.
I bet you’ll take the pin out going forward. Still don’t understand this new theme of always leaving it in lol
Dude why is the stick still in? At that distance you’re begging for it.
Stupid game or stupid call not yanking the flag? (The answer is both 😂)
Short? That’s at least a 40 footer.
Pull the pin my guy
In case it hasn’t been said, you would have made your birdie putt if the flag wasn’t in the hole.
right club at least
Those nerves! Haha welcome to it
Friends let you down. Pull the flag take your glove off
Damn hammered that, gotta miss a few before it rolls in!
Short putt for par now.
Hit it harder next time.
You couldn’t wait to walk away from that thing. You don’t see the fadeaway putt often. But, there it is.
Gotta pull the pin. Not because of physics or make % or whatever but because I wanna hear that sweet sound of the ball bouncing around in the cup.
I also had my first birdie lip out last Friday. Shot a 100. I’d have gotten my first birdie and my first time breaking 100. Love this stupid game.
At least you got it there. Most people hit birdie putts short. Still a great approach shot; you can build off of that and keep gripping and ripping.
Must be the putter
keep your head still until you can’t see the ball anymore and don’t rotate your shoulders.
Too much power
Keep the pin in, just hit it softer
Pull the flag, ditch the glove.
Hey, never leave the birdie putt short. Good on you
This is why i will never putt under 30 ft with the flag in. I hate that rule change
