Abstract: A system and method automatically report electronically recorded golf scores and other information to a golfer during or upon completion of a round of golf. A golfer operates a mobile terminal during play of a round of golf. The mobile terminal displays at least an electronic score card on its display. The mobile terminal may optionally display other information, such as advertisements, that may be of interest to the golfer. During play, the mobile terminal receives inputs from the golfer to record the golfer's scores. Other inputs may include selection of a displayed advertisement or purchase of a displayed product or service. Once the scores have been entered, the mobile terminal wirelessly transmits the scores and/or other information to a central server via a wireless subsystem. The scores and/or other information are then automatically communicated from the server to an email account and/or personal web portal account of the golfer.

Abstract: A golf car employs a mounting system to attach a display device to the golf car housing such that the display device is movable so as to facilitate viewing of a display screen of the display device by a user whether the user is located inside or outside the golf car. In one embodiment, the mounting system includes a rigid base member, a swivel member and at least one extension member. The swivel member mechanically connects the display device to the rigid base member and facilitates rotation of the display device about a vertical axis in a range of 0 to about 360 degrees relative to an initial position of the display device. The extension member is connected to the rigid base member and facilitates upward and downward movement of the display device distally from at least one point of attachment of the mounting system to the golf car housing.

Abstract: A golf cart computer for installation in a golf cart. The computer contains a display screen for showing graphically the details and features of each hole of a golf course. It has memory for containing the graphic details of the course and for containing scores of each player. The computer has a keyboard for entering scores and players' bets and other information. In a preferred embodiment, the computer has a slot for a memory cartridge which can be transferred to a stationary printing station so that the driver of the golf cart can receive a print-out of the accumulated scores therefrom. In one version of the invention, a light pen is connected to the computer for marking selected locations on the display screen, and the computer is capable of computing and displaying distances between selected features of the golf course including the ball.
