  I am not one for looking at the awards as I find them pointless, but how do you know which pins you still need to hit?

  Unless u keep notes i dont think there is a way to know

  On your profile, under awards shows this......not sure how it works though because it's showing i havent hit any, unless im reading it wrong..

  The correct read is: An award will be given when "every flag stick" has been hit at one course. That is, 18 different sticks to hit for each award.

  LOL, me neither so I guess I am in good company....or we both suck.

  I suppose it is yet another case of a useless award if you do not know what you have to do for it? The same old WGT award but no reward!

  I used to always pull the pin for all approaches, but looked like such a wally doing so when I end up 20 feet away! Now I usually only pull the pin if I am 75 yards or so - and you guessed it, still look like a wally as the ball seldom actually threatens the hole.

  Well done!  Congratulations young lady!

  Personally I'm working on hitting all the clocks* on Pinehurst No. 2.

  And I'm halfway there! ;~)

  

  *Warning!  Do not try this at home.

  This is correct. You have to hit every flagstick on that course.  Doesn't have to be in the same round
