The 'stick position' recovery is not a recognised technique and not reliable. "Control column centrally forward until the buffet stops" (or similar wording - this one is from the Central Flying School)) is the the only sure way to recover any stal.
This is the third time this topic has come up on this forum to my knowledge. It always gets a variety of answers and techniques, a lot of which contravene the PPL syllabus and in some cases are unsafe.
Be careful of advice offered here.
