A clarification on badge distance rules. All flights for Gold Distance,

Gold distance doesn't need to be predeclared,

Per the Sporting Code and the SSA Badge Dude, indeed, Gold Distance - unless a downwind dash - needs to be predeclared.

Please correct me if I'm wrong.

Thanks!

The only one that requires declaration of turn points is diamond goal.
Gold distance and diamond distance can be straight out without declared points.
