Since I've readjusted the cups on my own here is the low down:
1)the cups are set early in the a.m. and those who do it are no longer at the course, but they can be fixed
2)the problem with sand/tilting pins is usually due to the newer greens(Sweetgum, Mangrove & Palmetto)not being compacted enough(will change over time)
3)coupled with folks slamming the pin into the cup the loose sand comes up through the center hole(it is the deepest part of the cup)
4)a fix is to put a semi-permeable disc into the bottom of the cup when the new hole is cut thus preventing the problem(the disc is bio degradable)
