A ball position determining and course management system for a golf course includes a base station for course management and a plurality of golf carts for use during play of the course. The base station and the golf carts are adapted to operate in conjunction with a system for use in determining the relative position of and distance between objects on the course. Each golf cart has a roof and a monitor for displaying a map of each hole of the golf course with its tee boxes, fairways, greens and cups, and hazards. The monitor is mounted on the underside of the roof for shading and ease of viewing in sunlight, and has a screen which is canted back by a predetermined angle to reduce the amount of light reflected from the screen into the eyes of a viewer seated in the golf cart. The underside of the roof has a diffuse, black coating to reduce the reflectivity of its surface and to enhance the contrast of the display on the monitor. The monitor displays images in color, and the map of each hole of the course displayed on the monitor has selected features in distinctive colors relatively closely matching those of the respective actual features of each hole, for enhanced realistic display. The position determining system enables the position of the respective golf cart itself to be displayed in real time on the monitor as a unique symbol whose movement tracks that of the golf cart on the displayed map.
