摘要： A personal golfing assistant system is comprised of software running on a PDA attached directly or remotely to a GPS receiver that enables the user to survey and/or electronically capture geophysical golf data. A handheld device connected to or integrated with a GPS receiver can instead be used. Software allows a golfer to use a handheld PDA/GPS unit during the course of play to mark a ball location automatically and/or determine the distance to golf course targets and/or objects, and to analyze golf related data and generate statistics. The system can send a set of parameters tailored for a specific course to a real time tunable GPS to adjust for optimal performance and can adjust measurements to compensate for environmental condition changes. The system provides an improved graphical method for measuring and displaying distances between a golfer and a golf course object, for displaying multiple measured distances along a line of sight between a golfer and a golf object or target, and for orienting a target or object on a display to coincide with a user's line of sight. There is also provided a method for collecting and uploading golf course geographic information services (GIS) data to an internet accessible server, processing the uploaded data, distributing data upon an authorized user request, and downloading the requested data to an electronic device.

摘要： Examples of golf equipment covers and methods to manufacture golf equipment covers are generally described herein. In one example, a golf club head cover may include a body portion having an opening to receive a golf club head. The golf club head cover may include a magnetic portion that allows the golf club head cover to be magnetically attached to a metallic structure, such as a steel golf cart basket. The golf club head cover may include a magnet identifier located on or near the magnetic portion. The magnet identifier may notify an individual as to a location of the magnetic portion to aid the individual when the attaching the magnetic portion to the metallic structure. The golf club head cover may include a golf club head identifier that remains visible when the magnetic portion is magnetically attached to the metallic structure. Other examples may be described and claimed.

摘要： A multifunctional ranging telescope includes a main body, a wind direction and wind speed sensing device, a display device and a power source. The wind direction and wind speed sensing device is movably connected to the main body and includes a sensing element. When the wind direction and wind speed sensing device moves to a sensing position, the sensing element is located outside the main body. The display device is located on a surface of the main body and electrically connected to the wind direction and wind speed sensing device to display a wind direction and wind speed information. The power source is configured to supply power to the wind direction and wind speed sensing device and the display device.
