Referring to Figure 2 describes the operation of the golf game assisting device according to the present invention having the above structure as follows.

First, when the power button is pressed and power is applied to the present invention or the battery check button is pressed (401, 405), the controller 3 first checks whether the amount of charge of the battery can be used for more than 15 minutes. (403, 407)

At this time, if it is determined that the current amount of charge of the battery is not available for more than 15 minutes, the controller 3 notifies the golfer of the current state of charge of the battery and recommends charging.

On the other hand, if it is determined that the current amount of charge of the battery can use the present invention for 15 minutes or more, the controller 3 provides the golfer with the use time of the present invention corresponding to the amount of charge of the battery when the golfer requests. 411)

Next, as shown in FIG. 3, the present invention measures the distance from the position coordinates of the golf course stored in the memory unit 5 to the position coordinates of the current golfer in order to find the golf course adjacent to the current golfer.

At this time, if the distance from the position coordinates of the golf course to the current position of the golfer is within the distance 'R' stored in the memory unit 5 transmits a message that the golf course recognition has been completed (603, 605).

On the other hand, if the distance from the position coordinates of the golf course to the current coordinates of the golfer is greater than the distance 'R' stored in the storage unit, the message fails to recognize the golf course, and then returns to the previous step to find the golf course where the current golfer is located. (607)

In addition, as shown in Figure 3, assuming that a golf course where the current golfer is located, as shown in Figure 4, the present invention, as shown in Figure 4, the current position of the golfer and the coordinates of the center of each tee box installed in the golf course If the distance is within the radius set in the controller 3, if it is within the radius, one of a plurality of holes in the golf course is selected. (707, 709)

On the other hand, if the distance between the current golfer's position and the center coordinates of each tee box installed in the golf course is within the radius set in the controller 3, if outside the radius, the current golfer's position coordinates and each green center installed in the golf course are compared. If the distance to the coordinates is within the green radius set in the controller 3, if one is within the radius, one of the plurality of holes is selected. (711, 709)

On the other hand, the distance between the current golfer's position and the center coordinates of each green installed in the golf course is within the radius set in the controller 3, if it is outside the radius, for the current golfer's position and each fairway installed in the golf course. Comparing whether the distance from the position coordinate is within the radius of the fairway set in the controller 3, if it is within the radius, it is determined that the hole is provided with the fairway (713, 709).

At this time, if the distance between the position of the current golfer and the position coordinates for each fairway installed in the golf course is outside the radius of the fairway set in the controller 3, the current golfer is out of the hole to guide the golfer to enter the hole. Send a message (715)

Next, assuming that any one hole where a golfer is located among a plurality of holes installed in a golf course through the process as shown in Figure 4, the present invention, as shown in Figure 5, to the golfer's voice message or golfer's button operation By extracting the distance from the position coordinates of the current golfer to the center coordinates of the green of the hole where the golfer is located (801,803).

At this time, if the distance between the golfer and the center of the green is farther than 'R1' set in the controller 3, the distance between the golfer and the center of the green is 'R1' or more. If the distance to the center is closer than the 'R1' set in the controller 3, check whether the distance between the golfer and the center of the green is shorter than the 'R1' and is within the 'R2' which is the radius of the green. (805, 807, 809)

At this time, if the distance between the golfer and the center of the green is within the 'R2' range of the green radius, it indicates that the current golfer is in the green, and if the distance of the golfer's position and the center of the green is not within the 'R2' range, the current golfer The distance from the position of to the center of the green is guided by voice or video. (811,813)

Since the distance comparison factors 'R1' and 'R2' are different in shape and radius of the plurality of greens, it is preferable to have different data values.

In addition, the present invention recommends a club and club loft corresponding to the straight distance at the request of the golfer as shown in FIG. 6 when guiding the straight distance from the current position of the golfer to the position coordinate of the center of the green. Can give

At this time, the control unit 3 guides the club and club loft corresponding to each straight line distance and the flying distance corresponding to the club and club loft by voice or video.

In addition, since the clubs and club lofts and flying distances of the straight distances stored in the memory unit 5 may be different depending on the level of the golfers respectively, the golfer possessing the present invention is a device such as a laptop, a mobile phone, a tablet PC or a PMP. Through the Bluetooth communication can be changed to the club and club loft and flying distance for each straight line stored in the memory unit 5 to suit them.

That is, the user may directly input data regarding clubs, club lofts, and distances for each straight line in the data table of the memory unit 5.

In addition, as shown in Figure 7, the present invention can store the play information for the golf game by the golfer's voice or button operation every time the golf ball hits, wherein the play information is a data cable or Bluetooth Communication may be transmitted to a display or network-supported device (smartphone, network TV, computer) through communication, and the play information may include location information for each shot, time information, distance, and stroke information. .
