Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a score card used in a driving range.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Since golf is a sport in which the number of shots is competed on a golf course, various scorecards (scorebooks) that are easier to see and easier to use have been conventionally proposed for calculating the total number of shots (for example, actual ones). KAISHO 63-77770, JP-A 1-86569
Issue).

A feature of these scorebooks is that, together with the shot number entry fields in the out and in columns, the topography and distances of each hole can be visually expressed and understood. Therefore, for example, as shown in FIG. As described above, the plan view of each hole is combined with the topographical sectional view expressing ups and downs (Japanese Utility Model Laid-Open No. 63-77770;
(Fig. 5).

[0004]

By the way, many players perform so-called shot practice at a golf driving range in order to extend an accurate swing and flight distance before and after playing on a formal golf course. This is because the flight distance and directionality of each shot are important in order to improve the golf score as a competition, and repeated shot practice is indispensable for mastering the skill.

However, along with the changes in social conditions, it is expected that the golf driving range will become a place which provides more possibilities of play shots than the purpose of being a shot driving range. While it is difficult to use the course easily because it takes money and time to go to a full-fledged golf course, the total number of users at the driving range is increasing due to the increase in the golf population, This is because it is desired to have a shot score competition in a familiar golf driving range closely related to daily life.

The conventional golf score (score card) is meaningless in order to satisfy such a demand. This is because there are only a certain number of tee-ups and target greens on the golf driving range, and there are no fairways, bunkers, or ups and downs, and it is not possible to display topographical plane cross sections.

On the other hand, however, the golf driving range has special space facilities unique to the driving range, such as a front net and a side net. In addition, there are many cases where multiple target greens are prepared, leaving room for introducing new rules.

Therefore, an object of the present invention is to provide a score card that allows a small number of players to compete for a golf score while using the facilities of a driving range.

[0009]

[Means for Solving the Problems] In order to achieve the above object and achieve the object, a golf driving range score card according to the present invention has an OUT column and an IN column vertically divided into an OUT column and an IN column. Provide a hole setting field on the left side, and sequentially provide first to fourth shot fields on the right side of the hole setting field.
Place a putter column on the right side of the fourth shot column, and set a total column on the right side of the putter column to total the number of shots entered in the shot column of each hole, while a shot number counting rule under the IN column. A rule display field that graphically displays is provided, and the total number of shots entry field is arranged on the right side of this rule display field.The hole setting field is set according to the hole number field and each hole number. The designated number of clubs and target green number are set and displayed in the shot column as necessary in the shot column, and a display field for distinguishing between long putters and short putters is arranged in the putter column. And, in the rule display field, at least the shot number counting rule for carry shots using wood and iron, and the target green It illustrates displaying the approach shot shot count rules.

[0010]

The function of the score card according to the present invention is that the shots in each hole of the out column and the in column in the upper and lower columns can be counted and entered from left to right based on the rule display column in the bottom column. There is a feature in that.

This is because unlike the shots on the official course, the shot count for each shot differs depending on the size of the driving range and the counting rules based on the green equipment and the like. Counting rules for carry shots, approach shots, etc. are graphically displayed in the rule display field at the bottom, and the player enters the number of shots based on this graphical explanation. Incidentally, the final total number of shots may be obtained by simply adding the number of each hole shot including the putter rule.

[0012]

Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. FIG. 1 shows an example of a score card according to the present invention. The score card 10 is provided with an OUT column 11 and an IN column 12 arranged in the upper and lower rows, and an OUT column 11
The hall setting field 15 is arranged on the left side of the in field 12.

First to fourth shot columns 21 to 24 are sequentially provided on the right side of the hole setting column 15, and a putter column 30 is arranged on the right side of the fourth shot column 24. Also putter column 3
On the right side of 0, a total column 40 for totaling the number of shots written in the shot column of each hole is provided.

Further, below the IN column 12, a rule display column 50 for graphically displaying the shot number counting rule is provided.
On the right side of the rule display field 50, a total number entry field 60 for the number of shots is arranged. The above is the schematic configuration of the card.

Next, each section of this scorecard will be described more specifically. First, the hole setting column 15 is provided with a hole number column 16, a par number column 17 and a distance column 18 set corresponding to each hole number. Since the score card according to the present invention is premised on a fictitious setting course at a golf driving range, the par number column 17 corresponding to the hole number is used.
Is mandatory. Without this, the course image will not be generated and it will be just a shot swing. Further, the distance column 18 is set based on the normal course image, and shot play can be performed under more realistic condition settings. The distance field 18 is set according to the correlation between the club used and the target green. For example, if the flight distance of wood is 230 yards and the distance to the target green is 100 yards, then the number of distances for the hole is 330 yards (FIG. 1).
Outhaul No. 1).

In the shot fields 21 to 24, the number of shots is entered based on a preset counting rule.
In order to make the playing conditions more strict, the club type such as wood or iron is designated in advance, and the target green number is designated and displayed for the third shot in the long hole and the first shot in the short hole. In FIG. 1, reference sign W means that the club used is wood, and FW means that the club used is fairway wood. The code I is an iron. It should be noted that general female players do not need to be designated as clubs because they do not fly very far. Further, in the calculation in this embodiment, the flight distance of each club is, for example, FW of 200 yards,
I (iron) is set to 180 yards. The number of distances for each hole is determined by these numbers and the distance to the target green.

The target green is arranged at an appropriate place on the ground in the practice field, assuming several kinds of distances.
For example, in this embodiment, a plurality of greens G are arranged in the driving range ground R as shown in FIG. The target green G is
It is possible to set a slightly larger hole diameter so that the hole-in-one can be easily produced. For example, in this embodiment, the taste is enhanced by setting the hole diameter to about 1 m. In FIG. 3, reference numeral B is a side net, reference numeral N is a front net, and reference numeral X is a shot gauge. The distance to the green is 40 yards, 50 yards, 80 yards, respectively, as shown on the lower side of the approach rule columns 55 to 57, which will be described later. It was set to 100 yards and 125 yards. Of course, the number of greens to be arranged and the distance to the greens can be appropriately set and changed. The same applies to the hole diameter.

Next, the putter column 30 is provided with a distinguishing display column for long putters and short putters. This putter column 30 is not always necessary if the player does not have a putt practice course, but it is desirable to provide this putter column 30 in order to have a score competition closer to the actual battle. In FIG. 1, reference character L is a long pad and reference character S
Represents a short putt.

In the rule display field 50 which is the basis of the score count, shot rule fields 51 to 53 in which the carry shot count rule is graphically displayed and an approach rule field 55 in which the approach shot count rule to the target green are graphically displayed. Arrange ~ 57 and. Since the count is set at the golf driving range, such an illustration display field 50 (51-53, 55-57) is indispensable. 2A and 2B are enlarged views of these graphic display columns.

More specifically, in the case of a carry shot, when the player hits the side net B, it is re-shot as OB (out of burns), and a plus 2 is added. If it hits above the front net N, it is counted as one shot as a nice shot, and if it hits below the front net, it is counted as two shots. Of course, looser rules may be applied to women. For example, it is as displayed in the graphic display field 53. However, the female rule column (53) is not always necessary. Therefore, the number of graphic columns displayed in the rule display column 50 is not particularly limited.

The graphic display column 51 shows an example of counting the first shot and the second shot of the par 5, and also an example of counting the first shot of the par 4 when the designated club is wood. .

Further, the graphic display field 52 shows an example of counting the first shot of the par 4 when the designated club is an iron (or FW). In this case, for example, when hitting the side net B, OB (out of burns)
When the ball hits above the front net N, 2 shots are counted as an overshot, and when the ball hits below the front net, 1 shot is counted. Also, when you fall in front of the ground, 3
Hitting, 2 hits when falling into the ground area near the front net N is counted.

Basically, the approach rule fields 55 to 57 are one stroke plus when the green is turned on in the first approach shot, and two strokes when the green is touched and missed. If you do, it means that you add 3 strokes. Of course, the putter count is 0 when the player made a cup in the previous shot (when it was a hole in one). The target green number for the approach shot is, for example, the shot column 22 described above.
It is displayed on the left side of. And if it doesn't turn on (or cup in) on the green, it makes a second approach shot. At this time, the target is changed to the green of No. 1 or No. 2 (free choice), and the player plays in the same manner as any rule, for example, the first approach.
After that, putt play is performed as necessary and putter column 3
Enter the number of putts in 0 and total the number of shots in each hole. Enter all totals in the total entry field 60.

Therefore, according to the score card 10 described above, it is possible to easily understand the playing procedure based on the rule display field provided at the bottom, and it is possible to easily perform the competition at the golf driving range. It will be possible.

The shots in each hole can be entered by counting each stroke from left to right. Since the total column 60 is provided on the right side of the bottom of the card, the number of strokes in each hole is added in the vertical direction. You can easily count the total number of battings.

In the score card according to the present invention, the rule display field 50 is arranged at the bottom, but this is for the purpose of facilitating the count calculation, and if the calculation is not troublesome, the top is shown. Alternatively, rule display fields may be provided at the left and right ends. Further, the golf card according to the present invention,
Although the OUT column and the IN column are arranged separately in the upper and lower parts, since it is possible to assume a case of half play, it is possible to configure the score card only with the OUT column. In that case, the rule display column 50 and the total entry column 60 may be arranged below the OUT column, and the IN column may be deleted.

Further, the scorecard according to the present invention can be appropriately changed in layout according to a preset rule. For example, FIG. 4 shows a simpler rule than the scorecard shown in the first embodiment.
It is especially easy for beginners to use. This score card has basically the same configuration as that of the above-mentioned embodiment, except that the fourth shot column (24) is deleted and only the first to third shot columns (21-23) are displayed. There is. Along with this, the approach rule column (55) at the bottom is deleted.

This makes it possible to skip the third stroke of the par 3, the fourth stroke of the par 4 and the fifth stroke of the par 5, and move to the putt play, which simplifies the rule and makes the score card easier to see. Even beginners unfamiliar with the rules can easily enjoy playing.
