High school golf coaches are often not really knowledgeable about the rules, I have an issue when a coach tells a player NOT to follow A specific rule. As for the "stupidity" of this particular rule, I can't see a way to allow SOME stuff on the club face without allowing everything on the clubface. -

My daughter has fiducials (what they call the reflective stickers for launch monitors) on a few of her clubs. At the start of the high school season I told her to make sure to remove them before matches. She told the jv coach about them and he said not to worry about having the stickers on. I personally think this fits into the "stupid" rule category either way. -

A report from day 2 of the event, an unfortunate situation occurred. One player noticed that one of the other players in his group had what appeared to be stickers on several of his clubs, the ones on the face used with certain launch monitors. Word got back to the rules staff, and we (surreptitiously) confirmed the presence of the stickers. Those stickers are "external attachments", and their presence renders a club non-conforming. If a Player uses a non-conforming club to make a stroke, he is DQ. That's the easy part, the rule is pretty straightforward. The tough part, how to handle it. We considered having a quiet talk with the player while the round was still going on, but decided against it. We didn't want to DQ a player in the middle of the round, having him walking back to the parking lot on his own, as well as changing the pace and rhythm of the other players in his group. Instead, the Official in Charge, a young employee of the Middle Atlantic PGA who will be heading up their junior program this year, had a discussion with the player at scoring. The player took it with good grace, said he never knew they were a problem. He works with a swing coach, who was the one to help him put the stickers on in the first place, and apparently the coach never told him he needs to take them off. Ther4e are a few things that a player may do once in his golfing career. I think failing to identify his ball and consequently playing a Wrong Ball is one of those. Getting DQ for stickers on a club face is another.
