Leave It In (poke here)

Dave Pelz:
I conducted my original Pin In/Pin Out test in 1990, and published the results in the December issue of GOLF Magazine.
The testing was performed with a special putting device built to roll putts accurately aimed with a laser—and a true, pure roll—from two feet away.
We rolled putts at different speeds hitting different parts of the pin on flat, uphill and downhill sloping greens.
The test results were conclusive:
You will hole a higher percentage of putts when you leave the flagstick in.
