DISTANCE MEASURING DEVICES
The Rules of Golf allow DMD's if no other features are turned on.
PACE OF PLAY
Checkpoints will be placed at the 9th and 18th holes. Click here to view the Pace of Play Policy. It is the Ohio Golf Association's goal to encourage all players to play ready golf and keep the Pace of Play moving. Although we are asking for 4 hours and 30 minutes, we do think play could be 4 hours and 15 minutes if the entire group works together to play faster!

Players are not permitted to have a caddie.

REPLACEMENT OF CLUB THAT IS BROKEN OR SIGNIFICANTLY DAMAGED
Model Local Rule G-9:
“Rule 4.1a (2) is modified in this way:
If a player’s club is “broken or significantly damaged” during the round by the player or caddie, except in cases of abuse, the player may replace the club with any club under Rule 4.1b(4).
When replacing a club, the player must immediately take the broken or significantly damaged club out of play, using the procedure in Rule 4.1c(1).
For the purposes of this Local Rule:
- A club is “broken or significantly damaged” when:
➢ the shaft breaks into pieces, splinters or is bent (but not when the shaft is only dented)
➢ the club face impact area is visibly deformed (but not when the club face is only scratched)
➢ the clubhead is visibly and significantly deformed
➢ the clubhead is detached or loose from the shaft, or
➢ the grip is loose.
Exception: A club face or clubhead is not “broken or significantly damaged” solely because it is cracked.
Penalty for Breach of Local Rule – See Rule 4.1b.” (Added 4/2019)
GREEN READING MATERIAL
Previous years yardage books that have green reading information may not meet the proper scaling.

We look forward to the 2023 Ohio Junior Championship and hope you Play Well!
