90% of the golfers left the pin in while putting before the virus since the rule change.
We're still reaching in and touching the ball, pvc, and the lower part of the flag stick.
What pi**es me off are the rings are so tall that some are just a 1/4 " below the green.
How many times have you seen the ball spin around the flag like a roulette ball and barely stay in, or spin out?
If you're so paranoid about touching the flag stick, just don't do it!
It should be up to the person putting whether to leave it in or take it out.
So, I say get rid of them already PLEASE.
