I'm definitely going to check this one out. Thanks, Ted Hi Ted, Thanks for the comments. I also hope that you find the app useful. I haven't written an article for a mag for some time now (20 years), so a little out of tune with that side of things, but thanks again for your comments. Bye, Darrell ...

Re: Nice looking new gear!
Hi Everyone, www.sport-shooting.com I have not downloaded this new app yet, but it looks like it could be worthy to our sport. I downloaded a different one some time ago and it really didn't work too well. This one looks like a much better one. Thanks, tenring Hi, I finally got around to finishing ...

ISSF Trainer App - My personal review.
ISSF Trainer App – My personal Review. Right, it is official, for me at least, I like this App. Whilst I feel there is room for improvement, the Target Tracker App is able to store and present some very useful information for both new and experienced ISSF Pistol and Rifle enthusiasts and athletes a...

I have the app and find it quite useful as a method of recording my range training sessions and monitoring progress as it has a simple way of emailing you your session details, if you want. Basically, if you have kept or keep a diary that records all of your basic info for training and comps, the ap...

Another one I just remembered.... and another classic from my AP training days that involved our coach (mean he was).. It was one that I found myself doing automatically during training and matches, but had to curb myself to keeping the verbal to myself at the comps! The Imaginary Clock.... 10m Air ...

I've got two that come to mind... But the first certainly wouldn't stop the boredom as it involved shutting yourself in a dark room for 20 minutes, taking your normal stance, imagine the sight picture and work on trigger control / shot release, breathing and follow through... Guaranteed not to stop ...

btw I was told using lenses that is not your needed prescription is against the rules. As far as ISSF shooting is concerned, whoever told you that is wrong. I agree with David, if you are talking specifically about ISSF Rules for Pistol events and in particular, 10m Air Pistol, my interpretation in...

I noticed as I turned the lens to various angles that objects on the other side were being distorted into an egg shape , which quite startled me. Turns out the lens had a serious distortion built into it. Not all optics are created equal - an understatement to be sure, and the reading glass lens I ...

The OP was regarding astigmatism. Does an iris help with astigmatism? I have astigmatism and the use of an Iris by itself does not improve my sight picture. Also, the use of an Iris by itself won't turn my egg shaped target into a round one and it won't change my blurry front sight into a nice shar...

Hi Judith, I also agree with all that John and Rob have said and have attached a few photos that shows an Iris fully open and then closed. Also a couple of pictures of a cen...
