A wrist-worn apparatus for monitoring a user's performance while playing golf includes a user input, a processor, a heart rate monitor, a timer, a user input, a display, a processor and a memory for storing a plurality of inputted golf parameters that pertain to a round of golf. The apparatus obtains and displays the user's heart rate, providing feedback on the user's heart rate during a round of golf. In addition, the apparatus can store various inputted golf parameters and compute calculated statistics one or more rounds of golf.

I claim as my invention the following: 1. A wristwatch for monitoring a user's performance during a round of golf on a golf course, the golf course having a plurality of holes, the wrist-worn apparatus comprising:a housing;a strap attached to the housing for securing the housing to the user's wrist;a user input on the housing;a processor located in the housing and connected to receive information from the user input;a heart rate monitor connected to the processor, the heart rate monitor including a plurality of sensors exposed on at least two surfaces of the housing;a timer located in the housing and connected to the processor;a memory located in the housing and accessible to the processor, the memory including a memory location for storing a plurality of inputted golf parameters, the plurality of inputted golf parameters pertaining to the round of golf;a display on the housing, the display being connected to the processor,wherein the processor is adapted to present on the display a heart rate of the user, and the processor is adapted to compute and present on the display at least one calculated statistic for the round of golf; the heart rate monitor neither transmits nor receives heart rate information wirelessly; wherein the processor is adapted to compute a heart rate variability from a heart rate obtained by the heart rate monitor; and the processor is adapted to present on the display an indicator of when the user has achieved a balance between the user's sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems, the processor determining the balance based upon the user's heart rate variability.
