printing names on score cards

Jasonw

Does your club have an automatic score card printer for printing name and handicap onto cards? I’m not talking about the specialised ones where you place the card into the machine and it prints it directly on. More interested in printing the name and handicap onto a sticky label which is then stuck to the scorecard.

Which clubs use this system and how do they find it? Is there a way of hooking it up to the GUI software so the names don’t have to be typed in each time?

My club use it. Sign in in the pro shop, swipe your card thru the system and it prints out a label with name, handicap and competition format on the label.

Very easy to use, quick and effective.

We use one in Hollywood Lakes. Sounds the same as AGC's description - swipe your card (or key in your number) and out comes the label with all the relevant details.

Sounds like what I'm after. Which club is that? PM me if you're not comfortable posting it. We are looking to install a similar system at our club.

Bingo! That's where I was trying to think of. I know the lads there fairly well so I'll give them a shout next week. Thanks everyone for your input.

Is there a device, similar to a franking machine, that 'prints' or indents a scorecard directly?
We've costed out the price of the other method having used it for awhile. It runs to almost 1k with labels and ink. Also, the labels jam from time to time.

elm park use a dot matrix style printer directly onto the card, probably cheaper long term, we fly through the labels.

Bellewstown use a regular printer directly onto the card works great and i'd say cheaper than the lables.

Any club that is using handicapmaster handicap software can print directly to a card, I am surprised that other software can't do the same thing

Can someone PM me a phone number of a supplier or a system name as my club are looking to impliment a printed scorecard system again.
I asked Cork golf club a while ago about their system but it was set up by one of their members.

Thanks,
Jason
