The following was taken from a USGA publication. |
| A noteworthy change is the governing bodies' sanction of the use of distance measuring devives, including GPS-based systems and lazer rangefinders. New Decision 14-3/0.5 allows a Committee to permit the use of distance-measuring deviices by Local Rule. This applies to devices that measure distance only, not any other conditions that might affect a player's play (e.g., wind or graddient). In the absence of such a Local Rule, the use of a distance-measuring device remains contray to the rules. |
Another change that I would hope we would adopt, is as follows. The USGA Handicap System manual has been updated to allow golfers to post all scores for handicap purposes via the Internet as long as their club's Handicap Committee adopts that policy. |

| Thanks go out to all that helped on the January 28th work day. More of the trees next to the tee boxes on #8 were taken down. We all ended up a little wet from the rain but got a lot of work done. There will be another work day on Saturday, February 25th. 8:00 AM |
