Abstract

PURPOSE:To obtain the fundamental data for improving and obtaining a technique by measuring a flying distance of a player by applying a receiver for a global position measuring system, and generating a record together with the kind of a used club. CONSTITUTION:First of all, when a golfer standing on a teeing ground of each hole inputs the hole number, its position is derived by a GPS receiver and saved in a memory. After hitting a tee shot, by depressing a positioning button at every place to which a golf ball flies, a flying distance is calculated internally from a relative position to a position of the previous one nit and saved in the memory, and on the other hand, the number of hits is also counted. When the ball reaches the vicinity of a green, only the hit number count is instructed, and after green-on, the number of pats is inputted. At the time of O.B., a lost ball, etc., thenumber of hits of a penalty is inputted. After a play is finished, data (the hole number, a score, the kind of a selected club and a flying distance at that time, existence of a penalty, the number of pats, etc.) recorded in the memory are generated as a record by an output device in a clubhouse.

Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] (Object of the Invention) Conventionally, golfers have judged the relationship between club selection and golf hole distance based on their daily experience, but by actually measuring the flight distance, By creating a record of this along with the types of clubs used at the time, the aim is to use it as basic material for improving and learning techniques.

(Specific method invented, example) First, a golfer stands on the tee of each hole.
When the player enters the hole number manually, the position is determined by the GPS receiver and stored in memory. After hitting the Teen Yacht, by giving instructions such as pressing the positioning button at each location of the golf hole, the flight distance is calculated internally from the relative position to the previous hit position and saved in memory. At the same time, the number of at-bats also increases. When the hole is near the clean and there is no longer a need to measure distance, just instruct the player to count up the number of strokes, and after hitting the clean, enter the number of putts. In the case of a penalty such as OB or Lost Hole, the number of penalty strokes is calculated manually. After playing,
The data recorded in the memory of the club/'Aus (hole number, score, type of selected club and flight distance at that time, penalty - presence or absence of 1, number of bats, etc.) is created as a record on the output device. . A record of all athletes will be created by combining the data at that time.

(Effect of the invention) Judgment when selecting a club according to the topography of each hole of a golf course and the distance of greening changes each time, and keeping a record of the selection and the resulting flying distance is as follows. This will serve as a reference for play and will lead to improving and learning techniques. Also, if the golf course stores the results of each player and provides advice, this will lead to customer retention and improved service. On the other hand, applying a GPS receiver as the device has the advantage that it can be applied to each golf course without requiring a fixed distance measurement facility at the golf course, and the device can be mass-produced.

Claims (1)

[Claims] Using a global positioning system (GPS) receiver, we measure the flight of a ball hit by a golf player and the location where it stopped, and calculate the difference between the measured value and the location where the ball stopped in the previous shot. In addition to finding the flight distance by finding
Enter the data of the type of club used at that time, save it in the alignment memory, print out the hole number, score, flying distance, and club used chart at the clubhouse after play, and compare the club used and the actual flying distance at that time. How to create a transcript that records your relationships.
