Our pins usually get changed daily but this has been a hot topic the past few months at our course. The thing about my course is the greens are small meaning most are barely 20 yards deep and most are sloped but screaming fast. I've had a long talk with our GM about the placement of these flags lately. I mean some days only 20 percent of the green is usable b/c if you get above or beside the hole you are done. I'm talking make the ball start turning end over end and if it doesn't go in you are gonna roll 10 feet past the pin. It can be a bit unnerving having downhill putts that you can't stop and I've talked to several people about doing a better job of testing this. Having to worry about 3 or 4 putting from 4 feet away is a bit excessive in my book. But super fast greens, small and sloped does not equal fun times. It is making the course play 5 - 10 strokes tougher than normal when the greens are this fast and the pin's aren't placed delicately.
