Has anyone hit a flagstick lately?
One of my biggest pet peeves with this game was hitting the flagstick. Everytime it was hit, it careened 30-40 feet away from the pin. Regardless if it was a 15 yard flop... or 120 yard approach shot...

@ELF014 We used to get a pinseeker award in previous EA golf games.

@ELF014 I've yet to hit the flag stick following the latest update, playing something like equivalent of 4 rounds so far. It would be good if they had made it less likely to high the flag stick and end up nowhere near the hole as a result.
- @Ultrasonic_77 I wasn't complaining it was an observation. I'm aware of the issue where peole were complaining that the Pin Seeker award was being recognized. I wasn't one of them as mine was recorded. Same with the challenges, mine have always recorded.
For a long time I was hitting flag sticks on a regular basis. And honestly I made it a point not to pin seek with my shots.
But it dawned on me the other day, neither the people I regularly play with or myself had hit one in a while.
I swear there was a time it seemed as wide as a support pillar for a bridge.
I mean really, how often do you hit one in real life.
If it was changed, I think it was before the last update. I just happened to notice it now.
I do understand the odd time you flush one off the stick and it might careen 20-30 feet away. But I believe it would be an exception and not the rule. This game seemed to have it backa$$wards.
But then it's not the only thing I believe they got wrong.@ELF014that's what I thought you meant already when I replied above 🙂.
