Abstract: A hand held device (1) for recording scores of a golf game played by one or more players comprises a VDU (3) which selectively displays reference fairways (30) graphically which permits a player to enter the position of the location of a ball after each shot on the VDU (3) by positioning a cursor at a position (41) on the green (31) or the reference fairway (30) displayed on the VDU (3), which substantially corresponds to the position of the ball on the fairway or green being played. The position of the ball after each shot until the ball is holed is entered on the screen through the cursor. A microprocessor (2) reads the position of the cursor and stores a graphical representation of the progress (37) of the ball along the screen to the hole (29). The microprocessor (2) stores the graphical representation of the reference fairway (30) with the positions (41) of the ball entered through the cursor in a RAM (5) and computes the number of shots to the hole (29).
