A little long but necessary to explain why the different researchers came to different conclusions and why I choose to have the flag…
Leaving the flag in has definitely cost me shots. Great condensing the data for us!
I’m thrilled that I’ve found your channel.
You choose your words csrefully and don’t ramble on. Instructors that ramble lose me in the first two minutes or less. I really thought ‘In’
was better but will start pulling it as of my next round. I look forward to every episode. Thank you!
10:35 This is the problem I usually have with flag sticks. I think I also get this with long putts.
Good information. Some shots I like the pin in the cup. Like others sometimes I've lost a holed putt with pin in. Glad you cleared up the new ruling. Had a woman I play with tell me I was wrong that you have to take the pin out. I'll show this to her. Happily I beat her on that day…lol
I enjoyed the sexual innuendos most.
The way I putt…where the flag stick is laying is more of a factor, lol .
8:41 Where can I get one of those putting rails you show here? I can't find them on amazon.
Also it makes a difference if the flag stick is straight, tapered or different size at the bottom portion.. I like it out unless really long putt
Great info here, I'm going to drive to each hole location prior to teeing off and remove the stick to enhance my chances of making all shots according to this video!
Totally disagree! I do prefer the pin in on ALL putts. I do not tend to hit my putts more than a foot past the hole. ,My playing partners tend to request the pin out, so I am the pain in the ass that is always asking for the pin back in the hole, regardless of length. I watch almost all of your videos and you have given some excellent content, much of which has helped my putting, I even ordered the Honu putter with the Kotahi grip which should be here next week. I do use a modified claw type grip and had the grip on the Honu adjusted for my style of putting. My age is 75, my average number of putts in an 18 hole round is 28 and my GHIN index is 10.3. I am subscribed and thanks for the advise.
Surely that would depend on the girth of the pole. 😁
great content 👍
flag in helps me zero in on the location in my mind
