Abstract

Golfers on various golf courses enter their respective golfing performance information into a transportable performance entry device. The latter has a wireless communication capability in a preferred embodiment. Such performance information serves to permit identification of that golfer (or those golfers) who achieve a predetermined golfing performance achievement goal (such as, but not limited to, a hole-in-one). This same device can also serve to receive information to update such golfers regarding the present status of a corresponding competition and in particular can signal the conclusion of the competition and/or provide information regarding the winner (or such other corresponding information as may be selected).
