    iPhone app score tracker

    There was a small article about this in one of the shooting mags and it seemed like a good idea. The downside is you have to invest all of £1.79 to even look at it. However, having bought it, it does seem to cover most of the ISSF disciplines. All I need to do now is contact the developer to see if they'll do one for Black Powder...

    What is the actual name of the app?
    All the score trackers that come up from a search are nothing to do with shooting.

    Not sure if that is the same one as listed in the article ?

    There is also one called Shooting Final, which is a training aid for shooting ISSF Finale.

    Thanks,

    Will look forward to the Rapid fire app.

    It's called Shooting Diary

    It's published by JLLC shooting club and is in the App store as "Shooting Diary". They do an iPad and an iPhone version at £1.79. It does look good but it would be better if you could filter between rifle and pistol events.

    Shooting diary is alright, but not there yet. It takes some getting used to.

    The big plus of touch-screen is that you should be able to touch exactly where your shot landed, so enabling you to see your group build up. Unfortunately Shooting Diary seems to only have the one target, and certainly not the 10m AR, 50m smallbore rifle nor UK 25yr prone targets.

    Until it gets them you might as well save your money. When it gets them I'll be made up. Then an interface into electronic scoring systems, so you can download from the range, then a SCATT interface, and it will be a very tidy piece of kit.

    I'm actually suprised that they didn't make serveral versions - one for each discipline. For me it would be more convienient.

    drawback

    Paying £1.79 isnot a real drawback.. having to buy a unitthat operates Apple software is...Will they write a programme for the PC I wonder?

    I would happily pay £10.00 to record my progress (regression) over time and have the ability to look for faults indicated in the hooting pattern

    RSI Lab do something similar but is mainly "targetted" at live fire.

    Anyine know of any PC based record keeping software?

    Instead of buying something for the Apple software, why not keep a simple spreadsheet, you can convert these to graphs or bar charts which ever takes your fancy.

    having used two apps for score keeping, I'm starting to warm to the pen/notebook/spreadsheet idea.

    Cool book and pen

    As it happens our club air pistol coach has produced a very good score keeping book, he might be persuaded to show it on here when he undoubtedly reads this post of mine

    He he.

    I scan in my targets and overlay them in Photoshop, then print off and stick in my shooting diary. Shows overall grouping and my slow, slow improvements over time.
