PC-GOLF will help you improve your golf game. The program
is easy to use and understand. It is a very friendly program.
PC-GOLF is written especially for the amateur golfer and for the
IBM Personal Computer. Use it with confidence that it will help
raise your level of achievement and enjoyment on the course.
Player performance is the primary subject of the program. It
keeps track of your scores and your putts for each hole on your
home course. It shows you how you are doing on each hole.
PC-GOLF helps you concentrate on the main event so you can see
where improvement is most desirable and most likely to be
achieved. It will even mark the holes you should not accept
or offer presses on.
PC-GOLF can help you and your foursome to lower scores.
PC-GOLF's menu gives you six choices.
1. Introduction.
2. Tally the scores for a round.
3. Get the golfer's score sheet.
4. Get the golf course list.
5. Get the golfer's roster.
6. Quit. Going to the 19th hole.
1.Introduction. You are using the introduction now. This
tells you what each part of the menu does. The methods
used for prompting and giving directions to PC-GOLF
are explained.
2.Tally the scores for a round. This is where you record
the golfers putts and scores for a round. You also tell
PC-GOLF whether a round is for handicapping, performance
or just for practice. You see the gross and the adjusted
gross scores here too.
3. Get the golfer's score sheet. This is where you see each
golfers performance in nine tables and charts. You see
putt and stroke averages for each hole. The double
diamond flag marks the holes where you should not press
your opponents. See your Personal Best scores here.
4. Get the golf course list. This is where you add, change
and delete courses and provide the information about par,
course rating and hole handicaps. You also review the
golf course information here. The course list holds nine
golf courses.
5. Get the golfer's roster. This is where you add, change
and delete players, assign the players home course and
initial handicap. You also review the golfer's roster here.
The roster holds sixteen golfers.
6. Quit. Going to the 19th hole. This provides a smooth
exit from PC-GOLF and a return to IBM DOS.
Remember, first things fourth. That is where you start to
use PC-GOLF. You add golf course information first. The second
thing to do is add golfer information. Once the course and player
information has been added you are ready to tally scores. When you
have tallied scores for a golfer, then you can see that players
performance in the score sheets. This view of player performance
has not been available before. It provides visibility and allows
the golfer to concentrate on the "main event" to raise his or her
level of achievement.
PC-GOLF welcomes men and women golfers to a clear view of
their performance. The professional golf instructor can also use
the convenience and clarity of PC-GOLF to the students benefit.
Answering prompts and giving directions to PC-GOLF is easy.
You do it in two ways. For one example. Just below the six item
menu you will see the message:
"You're away!"
"PRESS the number of your choice. (1,2,3,4,5 or 6)".
You do just what the prompt requests. You touch, type or strike
the key which is the "number of your choice". As soon as you
strike the key, PC-GOLF will act according to your choice.
For the other example. You will see a kind of message which
asks for information.
"ENTER the player's phone number,e.g. 555-1212 ".
Again, you do just what the prompt requests. In this case, you
type in the players telephone number, 123-4567, and then touch,
type or strike the ENTER key. As soon as you strike the ENTER
key, PC-GOLF will act on the information you have ENTERed.
To answer prompts and give directions to PC-GOLF you simply
PRESS a key or ENTER information. What about typo's?
Whenever you PRESS a key or ENTER information and then say
"OOPS", you will find a friend in PC-GOLF. The program is very
forgiving. It allows you to make corrections to any input. So,
don't worry about typing mistakes. You can make corrections.
Another friendly aspect of PC-GOLF lies in its anticipation
of a potentially messy mistake. One such mistake would be to
erase the scores that a player has in the data bank before you
were really ready to do so. To prevent the messy mistake from
happening, PC-GOLF asks you if you really want to do what you
said you wanted to do. In other words, you have a chance to
change your mind when the potential exists for a messy mistake.
