Personal Score keeping.

Ive decided that now ive just taken up compound im going to record all of my scores properly and monitor my progress over the remainder of the indoor season and outdoor 2008.

I dont want to use a PDA to do this. And have currently been plotting my scores plus other vital info (X's, hits, date etc) in Excel.

What other software do people use for monitoring their own progress. Has any one written any software to do this. Any free software people know of?

Cheers

not free but my christmas pressie from zoe was a PDA with a copy of bowbuddy

aside from some syncing issues its a pretty cool piece of kit

having said that i AM still maintaining the spreadsheet i used before that which records all the relevant data

i have tried various bits of demo and free software but the only one that did the job properly was robbos heavily macroed spreadsheet (iwould post the URL but i cant find right now - sorry) - i would still use this if it werent for the fact that it takes FOREVER to load and save in open office (im a linux user) and that would mean booting into windows two or three times a week more than i want to !

(although once i get bowbuddy syncing properly ill have to do that anyway)

Why don't you want to use a PDA they are great and make scoring much faster and less error prone. Also if you like excel you may find they will sync with your PC to let you do this.

I also use Excel. Transfer all my scores into record sheets and use V-lookup to cross reference the handicap and classifications. Trending scores can be built up over the season. There are other applications available but Excel is very powerful if used well. If you've got it, use it.

Thanks for the link Clicki. Seems like the sort of thing I've been after for keeping track of my own scores.
