I recently started playing in TGC's tour Q-school and was very disappointed to find that I was forced to use the aids that I no longer use in normal play. I understand having the option to turn off aids when creating a tour or tournament to increase the challenge, but I see no reason to force players to use aids if they choose not to, as they will gain no advantage from doing so.
At least tour operators should be given the option to make aids optional rather than just on or off.
