Rangefinders
For all forms of Minnesota Public Golf Association (MPGA) competition, the MPGA authorizes the use of Rangefinders for distance measurements only as per the suggested USGA local rule.
Distance-Measuring Devices:
For all MPGA competitions, a player may obtain distance information by using a device that measures distance only. 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 function is actually used."
