A record of a golfer’s performance during a round at Chenango Valley State Park’s golf course, this document tracks the number of strokes taken on each hole, along with potentially other details such as penalties, putts, and fairways hit. It serves as both a performance log for the individual player and a standardized means of comparing scores among players. An example includes noting a “4” on hole number 1, a par 3, indicating the golfer achieved par, or a “5,” denoting a bogey.
This documentation has considerable value, providing immediate feedback on areas of strength and weakness within a golfer’s game. Over time, analysis of these records reveals patterns of performance, enabling players to target specific skills for improvement. Historically, manual record-keeping using physical copies was the standard, but digital formats are now commonly available, offering automated statistical analysis and easier accessibility.
