ABSTRACT:
A golf round data system includes a portable data collection unit adapted to be carried by the user for displaying information to the user and for recording data concerning the golf round. Data concerning the layout of the golf course and the location of key golf course features is stored in the data collection unit internal memory. The data collection unit includes a receiver for receiving at least one external locating signal from which the user's current location on a course can be determined. A microcomputer in the data collection unit uses the external locating signal to determine a player's current location on the course and for calculating distances between the player's current location and a designated golf course feature, as the pin location. The distance calculated is displayed to the user. The data collection unit also includes input means to register each stroke taken by the user. The microcomputer is responsive to the input means to calculate the location on the course from which each stroke is taken. The location of each lie is stored in the data collection unit's memory and may be analyzed subsequently to derive player performance statistics. The recorded lies may be also be used to generate a plot of the golf course with each recorded lie.
