Golf scoring device

Abstract

A golf scoring device for tracking accuracy statistics during a golf game is provided. Accuracy statistics calculated are total greens per regulation, putts taken per round, and fairways hit per round. Additionally, the golf scoring device may include sand saves per round, up and downs per round, and total score per round. The device may calculate information either digitally or through mechanical structures. The user resets the device at the end of golf play.

1 . A golf device comprising: 
 a base;    a first tabulation member incremented by a user for each green hit in regulation per golf round;    a second tabulation member incremented by the user for each putt taken per golf round;    a third tabulation member incremented by the user for each fairway hit per golf round;    a display corresponding to the tabulation members.    
   
   
       2 . The golf scoring device of  claim 1  further comprising a fourth tabulation member incremented by the user for each sand save per golf round.  
   
   
       3 . The golf scoring device of  claim 1  further comprising a fifth tabulation member incremented by the user for each up and down per golf round.  
   
   
       4 . The golf scoring device of  claim 1  further comprising a sixth tabulation member incremented by the user for each golf stroke per golf round.  
   
   
       5 . The golf scoring device of  claim 1  further comprising a power source for the display.  
   
   
       6 . The golf scoring device of  claim 5  wherein the power source is a battery.  
   
   
       7 . The golf scoring device of  claim 5  wherein the power source is a solar cell.  
   
   
       8 . The golf scoring device of  claim 5  further comprising at least on power button to engage the power source movable between an on position and an off position.  
   
   
       9 . The golf scoring device of  claim 8  wherein the tabulation members only increment when the power button engages the power source.  
   
   
       10 . The golf scoring device of  claim 9  wherein the power button is biased toward the off position.  
   
   
       11 . The golf scoring device of  claim 8  wherein the base is a rectangle.  
   
   
       12 . The golf scoring device of  claim 11  wherein the tabulation member and the display is located within the rectangle.  
   
   
       13 . The golf scoring device of  claim 11  wherein at least one power button is located on a first edge of the base.  
   
   
       14 . The golf scoring device of  claim 12  further comprising a second power button located on a second edge opposite the first edge.  
   
   
       15 . The golf scoring device of  claim 11  wherein the base is approximately 3.5 inches wide by approximately 2 inches tall.  
   
   
       16 . The golf scoring device of  claim 8  further comprising a divot tool attached to the base.  
   
   
       17 . The golf scoring device of  claim 8  wherein the base is a circle.  
   
   
       18 . The golf scoring device of  claim 17  wherein the circle has an approximately 1.5 inch diameter.  
   
   
       19 . The golf scoring device of  claim 16  further comprising a divot tool attached to the base.  
   
   
       20 . The golf scoring device of  claim 5  further comprising a microchip receiving input from the tabulation members and outputting to the display.
