ABSTRACT:
This invention counts golf strokes per hole. It is worn on a golfer's wrist, on a lanyard, placed in a pocket, or clipped on one's clothing. It allows a full range of non-restrictive movement and is indexed between twelve positions patterned after the hours of a clock. The starting position is at 12 o'clock, first shot is 1 o'clock, second shot is 2 o'clock, etc. This enables the user to simply click to the subsequent position without the need to read the display. The pointer is mounted to a base and rotates, having 12 equally spaced positions. Each position is secured in place by means of a ball or radius shaft that is spring-loaded into one of the 12 equally spaced indentations in the base. The ball requires little or no friction during indexing but provides sufficient holding pressure, ensuring that the indicator is held firmly into position.
