Clean Run - July 2010 - 45

To use the SAD checker in Figure 1 while viewing a course on your monitor, you can use the zoom feature in CRCD to get the scaling of the course and SAD checker to match. Different size monitors and laptop computers display courses differently, but if I am viewing a 100' x 100' course and set the “zoom percent” to 96% on my personal computer monitor, I can hold up the SAD checker to the screen and use it as shown in Figure 2. You can see how the 21' line on the SAD checker matches up with 21' on the course grid. Different size monitors and laptop computers require you to adjust the course size using the CRCD zoom feature. If you don’t want to use the zoom feature, your alternative is to make extra SAD checkers to accommodate all the different size courses. Most of us using the SAD checker have a “deck” of the various sizes. While the 21' distance is used for checking options, you’ll notice that there are additional distances on the SAD checker. These are extra course design aids. The 13' distance is the minimum allowance to a direct off-course obstacle or a run-out line. The

15' and 18' distances are used for some minimums between obstacles. The little ruler grid at the bottom of the SAD checker is used in some cases to determine if there’s enough space between obstacles to meet the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) guideline of a 4' minimum between obstacles to allow access or to be certain that all obstacles are at least 8' off the bonus lines for safe handler movement along the taped line. The little ruler can be used to measure any place a straight-line measurement will work. To print your SAD checker, you will need to use a paper called “vellum.” It is familiar to most of us from its use in wedding invitations. When it is placed firmly over a printed page it becomes almost completely transparent and can be run through any ink-jet or laser printer. Once you have printed the SAD checker, seal it in a businesscard-size, self-sealing laminating pocket, available at any office supply store. Alternatively, you can print the SAD checker on ink jet or laser transparency film sheets, which are also available at office supply stores.
