Sony Ericsson P800 Tour

This tour of IntelliGolf® shows you how easy it is to score a round of golf on your Sony Ericsson P800 phone. Just follow the steps below.


Rounds Screen.

1. Start a New Round.

Launch IntelliGolf on your Sony Ericsson P800 by tapping on the IntelliGolf icon. To start a new round, simply tap on the New Round button.

If you have scored other rounds, you may also resume them or delete them. Use the icons at the bottom of the screen to:

Scorecard Icon   View a scorecard and statistics for a completed round.
Courses Icon View, edit, and download course scorecards.
Players Icon View and edit players.
Delete Icon Delete a round.
Delete Icon Sync with desktop.


Choose Course Screen.

2. Choose the Golf Course.

Choose an existing course from the list or tap on the Add button.

Decide where you'll be teeing off from and set the Tees and Start choices appropriately.

Edit Tee Box.
IntelliGolf provides wireless access to over 24,000+ signature courses in the IntelliCourse™ database. Using a scorecard from the database saves you from entering hole information at the course and makes round setup a breeze. Just tap on the Download Course button to wirelessly access the database from your P800.
Add/Edit Course Screen.
In addition to downloading courses, you may also add a new course by Tapping on the Add button. A course name and at least one Tee name (e.g. Blue) are required. The other fields (e.g. Phone, City, State, etc.) are optional. You may enter information for as many as 5 tees.
Edit Tee Box.
Tapping on the    button brings up this screen. It allows you to enter all the information about each hole before you begin your round. You can also enter the information as you play each hole on the course.

Players Screen.

3. Add the Players.

For each player in your group, tap on a player box. This brings up a screen that allows you to "write" the player's name on the scorecard. If any of the players are playing a different tee than you, you may select it here.

If you wish to count putts for a player, tap on the checkbox under putts. When putts are counted, IntelliGolf will also calculate how many greens were hit in regulation.

Normally IntelliGolf shows player's net scores and how many strokes they are over or under Par. Optionally, IntelliGolf can show British Stableford points (1 point for a Bogey, 2 points for Par, 3 points for a Birdie, etc.) for each player by checking the "Stableford scoring" checkbox at the bottom of this screen. This scoring is very popular in Europe. You may also specify what net score should be posted for a "ringed" hole here. If you would like to turn off the display of running totals while you are playing, simply uncheck the "Show Running Totals" item.

Choose Player Screen.
This screen comes up to "write" a player's name on the scorecard. The Scorecard name is required, other fields are optional. You may also erase a player from the scorecard by tapping on the Erase button. To enter a new player, select <new player> from the list.

If you would like to enter a player's handicap, you have three choices:

  1. Handicap
    Use this selection to define a player's handicap.
  2. USGA Index
    Use this selection for players that have a USGA Handicap Index. IntelliGolf will compute a course handicap for the golfer using the formula: Course Handicap = Index * slope / 113. IntelliGolf supports a men's and women's slope rating for each tee, so be sure to set the Sex field correctly if you are using this handicap choice.
  3. Average Score
    Use this selection when a player does not have an established handicap but they have some idea of what their "average" score is on this course. IntelliGolf will compute a handicap using the formula: Handicap = Average Score - Course Par.
  4. EGA Index
    Use this selection for players that have a Handicap Index issued by a European golf association. IntelliGolf will compute a course handicap for the golfer using the formula: Course Handicap = Index * slope / 113 + rating - par.

Choose Sidegames Screen.

4. Add the Side Games.

If members of your group have agreed to a friendly side game, add games here by tapping on the Add button. If you're playing "just for fun", enter a wager of 0. This screen is also used to edit or delete games already being played.
Add/Edit Sidegames Screen.
Pressing the Add game button brings up this screen. Choose a game, wager amount, and which golfers are playing. Skins can be scored with or without carryovers, and Nassau can be played with or without presses. Tap on the currency symbol to change what currency you wish to use for wagering.

The handicap strokes for each player are shown to the right of their names. Handicap scoring can be calculated one of four ways on an individual game basis:

  1. Handicap difference
  2. Full handicaps
  3. Handicap values
  4. No handicaps

When using the Handicap difference method, IntelliGolf subtracts the low handicap from all players' handicaps. The Handicap values choice lets you enter a handicap value for each player for just this game.


Hole Screen.

5. Enter Strokes, Putts and Hole Information.

This screen is where you enter the strokes and putts for the players as well as hole yardage, par and handicap information (if you have not already done so). Everything can be entered by tapping on the desired field and then tapping on the numbered buttons at the bottom of the screen.

Entering the scores shown is as easy as tapping on the 4, 1, 4, 2, 5, 2, 6, 2 buttons! A golf tee works great for this if you don't want to pull out the stylus.

If you are keeping score with stableford points and you wish to "ring" a hole for a player, tap on the R button and IntelliGolf will automatically calculate a score that results in zero stableford points.

On the first hole, tap on the Start button when you tee off. IntelliGolf will automatically keep track of the elapsed time of your round in the upper right corner of the screen.

If you tap on a player's name, a round scorecard will be shown for the player.

If during the round you need to change a player or other settings, use the main menu: Hole Menu.


Score Summary Screen.

6. Let IntelliGolf Score the Round.

During the round, IntelliGolf will tally the scores. At any time you can view a player's scorecard and statistics by tapping on their name.

At the end of the round this scoring summary screen is shown.
