I've seen Woodland leave the flag in on at least two puts so far. Is it not a penalty if you hit the stick on a out anymore?

Yeah, new rule. I've played with the stick in all year. Saves time and my brain likes it. Aim at the stick. Good target.

The flag stick is in the middle of the cup right. Aim for the stick same as aiming middle of the cup. I feel the stick is a better target than an empty cup.

Works on straight putts I guess

If the flag is halfway decent and sits upright instead of a cheap-arse lean....
it doesn't hurt any putts and potentially helps on the ones that have too much pace.

I leave it in 90% of the time. The only time I pull it is when it's one of those shitty ones that leans at a 45 degree angle. I ain't about that noise.

For me, it also give me a better sense of distance on longer putts.

No idea how this can turn into a debate. Just do what you want to.
