Men's and women's golf leagues are becoming increasingly popular. Golf courses everywhere are starting them up as a way to fill tee times and to increase food and beverage income.
The problem, until recently, was that whomever was running the league probably did the scoring in the evening and it was difficult to find out how you or year team did until the next day at the earliest.
Pat Alpaugh knew there had to be a better way. So the Hamilton resident created golfscoring.net.
"I came up with the concept of creating a computer program so we could enter the results right away and everyone would know the results of the day," he said. "A friend of mine suggested we take this one step further and take the computer program and run it through the TV in the bar at the golf club so we could broadcast the scores of the day."
