1. A system for providing statistical analysis for golf performance of user comprising:
- a portable input device operable for capturing shot data, including GPS data, during the golf play of a golfer, the device being further operable to transmit the shot data to a computer for reviewing the shot data and analysis of the shot data through a graphical user interface viewable on a display;
the computer further including software operable for providing statistical analysis of the shot data;
wherein the user provides a series of corresponding starting points, user-defined target areas that are not represented as a pinpoint target, and recordation of actual shot locations from those starting points to the target areas during the golf play via the device;
wherein the target areas are definable using a single user input; and
wherein the statistical analysis includes outputs having detailed diagrammatic representations of golf performance analytics, including scattergraph diagrams, that provide information of approximate accuracy with respect to the target areas and relating to the golfer'"'"'s golf performance over a predetermined period.

Abstract
Systems and methods providing statistical analytics of golf performance including text, tabular, graphic, and image-based outputs that include trends information for the golfer, all based upon actual golf play on course situations, wherein the golfer inputs shot data during play, without interrupting the flow of the game, and uploads the shot data for analytics and review online, including detailed diagrammatic representations of golf performance analytics, such as scattergraph diagrams, that provide information including zone-based target areas rather than merely pinpoint targets.

14. A method for providing statistical analysis of golf performance of a golfer including the steps of:
-
the golfer inputting shot data including corresponding coordinates for a series of shots defined by a start point and a single input for a user-defined target area having at least two dimensions that is not represented as a pinpoint target; the user uploading the shot data to a remote server computer;
software operable on the computer performs statistical analysis of the shot data associated with the golfer; andthe software providing analytics outputs to the user via a display having a graphical user interface, wherein the outputs include detailed diagrammatic representations of golf performance analytics that provide information including approximate accuracy in relation to the user-defined target areas; wherein the approximate accuracy includes a percentage of the shots coming to rest within the target areas and a percentage of shots coming to rest to the left, right, long and short of the target areas. - View Dependent Claims (15, 16, 17, 18)

19. A method for providing statistical analytics of golf performance comprising the steps of:
-
providing a GPS-operable device operable for a user to input golf shot data during play on a course; uploading the golf shot data including GPS data to a computer having software for providing analysis of the data, such analysis including whether a shot rested in a user-defined target area, and how far and in which direction a shot deviated from a user-defined target area; inputting through a single input the user-defined target area that is not represented as a pinpoint target; and providing outputs including analytics of the data, wherein the outputs are viewable by the user via a graphic user interface on a display, including scattergraph diagrams that provide information including text, tabular, graphic, and image-based outputs that include trends information for the golfer, all based upon actual golf play on course situations, wherein the golfer inputs shot data during play, without interrupting the flow of the game, and uploads the shot data for analytics and review online. - View Dependent Claims (20, 21)
