It's called FairwayWatch and is aimed at making it easier to keep track of just how many strokes you take.<br /><br /><img src="http://www.pocketpcthoughts.com/images/fairwaywatch.gif" /><br /><br />Features Include: <br /><br />* 2 Stylus Free Score Entry Systems<br />* Importing/Exporting of Courses (Full Web Database planned)<br />* Saving/Reviewing of old rounds<br />* Player Saving<br />* Putt Tracking<br />* Side Bet Game Scoring<br />* Statistics Page<br />* And More...<br /><br />I took a quick look at this, and it has a couple of useful features. First, you can create customized entries with data about the courses you play most often. Second, the on-screen buttons for recording strokes are large enough to use a finger so you don't have to fumble with a stylus.<br /><br />However, my understanding of golf is pretty much limited to what I've learned watching <i>Caddyshack</i> about a hundred times, so if you're an avid golfer, why don't you take a look at this and let me know what you think of it?

I like the big buttons and input area, it makes it easier to use than most golf scoring programs. But I think I would miss many of the features of other programs like IntelliGolf. Nice program though.

Any ideas of what you would miss, if I may ask. I want to try and compete with "The Big Dogs".

Obviously handicapping will be coming... but are ya actually using
all the shot tracking for each hole, or ???

Thanks a ton,
