WHAT GolfLog DOES
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
GolfLog is a database program that allows a Golfer to keep up
with the progress of his/her game in several different ways. It
keeps detailed accounts of each game and allows the user to pull
up any Game Record for an extensive review of that particular game.
The Summary of all games provides the Golfer with the totals of
many different facets of the game. If you want to know how many
strokes you have made since you started keeping records, it's in
the Summary. Other interesting items are also provided such as
the average strokes per hole for all the holes you've recorded,
the totals of all the Pars, Birdies, Bogeys, etc. for an entire
golfing season. This summary might well be the most interesting
and informative source of game progress you will ever be able to
find. Need to know how much you've spent on Green Fees and/or
Cart Rental Fees? It's right there in the "Summary".
You can pull up for review, the score card for any game you've
recorded and check to see just what the score was on any hole you
wish. Need to know WHO you played what COURSE with on a given
DATE and what your SCORE was? No problem! If you entered names
of your playing partner(s) when you recorded the game, all that
information is right at your fingertips.
GolfLog will maintain stats for 8 Golfers, 50 different Golf
Courses and 8,000 games (1,000 games per Golfer).
These figures represent the capabilities of GolfLog when it is
registered only.
In the registered version, GolfLog will automatically update a
Golfer's Handicap Index each time a new Game is added to the
database PROVIDED the Golfer has a total of 5 or more 18-hole
games recorded in the database. This eliminates the need to
manually update the Handicap Index for each Golfer using the
Handicap Index option under the HANDICAP heading.
Golf and Country Clubs wanting a larger system
should contact RiverBend SoftWare and inquire
about GolfClub. Does everything GolfLog does
and handles 7,500 Golfers, 65,000 games.
