In May 2025, many of us have decided to participate in the 30-Day Golf Coach4aday Challenge. Each day the goal is to share something about a particular golf course, golf equipment, or to actually get on the course and play a few holes. Golf is the only sport where you can be furious, humbled, and ecstatic—all in the span of one hole, and still call it “relaxing.” It’s a game where you are cajoling and chasing a tiny ball into a gopher hole. For many it becomes a lifelong obsession and an excuse to buy outrageous pants and the latest driver.
Today my golf observation is on the Golf FLAGSTICK

This challenge will not be for everybody but there are plenty that enjoy the game despite not being anywhere close to playing at a high level. That includes me.
Golf 30-Day Challenge Guidelines
As with previous challenges, participants are encouraged to adapt the guidelines to fit their own circumstances. If you can, commit to getting out on the golf course—but if that’s not in the cards, share a story about a favorite course or a piece of gear you love (or love to hate).
- Record something about your day on the course or talk about a golf course or piece of equipment.
- Share with a challenge partner if you have one.
- Join the conversation by posting on social media with the hashtag #Coach4adayChallenge
Day 24-Flagstick
If you play golf, you know each hole on the course has a flagstick.
According to the USGA, the flagstick must be circular in cross-section and cannot exceed 0.75 inches (1.9 cm) in diameter. It must be at least 7 feet (2.13 meters) tall to ensure visibility from a distance. The flagstick can be made of any material and may include features like reflectors or sensors for use with electronic devices. It is designed to fit securely into the hole liner, which itself must be 4.25 inches in diameter.
Flagsticks can come in all different color combinations on the stick itself and of course the flags can be adorned with different colors and logos.
