GNAS Handicap Tables and Classification Tables
Due to copyright restrictions, the handicap and classification tables are NOT currently
included within the software. However, the facility to use these tables IS
included within the current functionality of Longbow.
Negotiations have been taking place with the GNAS in an attempt to resolve the issues
surrounding this data but so far to no avail. As a result, it was decided
to make Longbow flexible so that these tables could be added at a later date.
Should the issues surrounding the distribution of these tables be resolved, they
can be simply downloaded from this website and then imported directly into Longbow.
Once these tables are imported, the requirement for handicaps and classifications
to be entered manually will be removed and all calculations will be automated.
If your club chooses to implement its own set of handicap/classification tables,
the required format of these tables for importing into Longbow can be found
here.
Scoresheets created on PDA/Mobile Device
Here at MDESystems we are big on system integration. As part of this integration
Longbow offers you the facility to import xml scoresheets generated by PDA/Mobile
devices directly into Longbow thus removing the requirement for manual entry. The
only requirement is that the scoresheet is generated using this
required format.
The latest edition of BowBuddy already supports
this feature and we are sure that others will follow.
