  If it's from off the green then yes. :-)

  Flag Ghost! ;D...lol  (or it is Ghost flag? :s  )

  I had this question for a while, I guess this is a good moment to ask it.

  When we hole a shot and the ball hit the pin before going in, like a chip in or a holed flop or chip...etc... the ball hit the flag and goes in.

  Does that count as a Hit the flag stick for the "hit all flag stick in the course award" ?

   

  tks, :)

  Interesting question. It should count, but.....  My silly way of thinking is...

  It counts only if you get the message 'Hit the Flagstick' and not the message 'Chip in'  ... I think.

  is not too important, but  a fair question ;)

  Very fair question. I've got one of those awards, but as time goes by...  I'm pretty sure I've hit all the Flagsticks on another course, but no award.

  That's why I think, if you hit the stick and chip-in, it won't be counted. Only if you hit the stick and the ball stay's out.

  on a par 3 at congressional my drive hit the green and bounced backwards into the trap.  I watched the replay 3 times and the ball clearly hit the green but bounced backwards.  I just about decided it was just a deviation.  I tried the #3 view the last one that I could get and  I could see the ball clearly hit the flag stick about 3 feet up,  there was no noise or any "hit the flagstick" pop up.   Crazy eh?

  hey, I found the answer :) moments ago I holed a shot from Fringe, and at the same time I received the Platinum hit the flagstick award. I didn't remove the pin, so I hit it.

  So, if we hole a shot and hit the stick at the same time, it count 

  :D

  Who is going to miss a swooping 2 footer?

  Bethpage #15 springs to mind.

  There's more than a few slippery putts on Oakmont too..
