THE FOLLOWING LOCAL RULE APPLIES FOR ALL GCJGF SPONSORED AND CONDUCTED TOURNAMENTS

DISTANCE-MEASURING DEVICES:
For all play in a Gold Coast Junior Golf Foundation sponsored and conducted tournament, a player may obtain distance information by using a device that measures distance only. However, if, during a stipulated round, a player uses a distance-measuring device that is designed to gauge or measure other conditions that might affect his play (e.g., gradient, wind-speed, temperature, etc.) the player is in breach of Rule 14-3, for which the penalty is disqualification, regardless of whether any such additional functions are actually used.

The use of a distance-measuring device that is capable of gauging or measuring other conditions that might affect play, even if such a function is not used, is prohibited. For example, if a golfer uses a distance-measuring device that also has a compass and factors in changes in elevation, that golfer would be disqualified even if he or she uses the device solely for distance information and does not use the compass or elevation-change information.
