I think this link (a professional one, about physics)
http://focus.aps.org/story/v14/st16
might be interesting also here.
Not sure though!

Relevance to rapid-fire events

Post by kiwi47 »

A very interesting article, and may be relevant to rapid-fire shooting, where the point of aim must change and settle rapidly. Also, apart from pistol shooting, this would have relevance to skeet (or clay-bird) shooting.

Quote from the article:
"The subjects produced the smallest errors when their dot-leading times just before the change were about average for the whole group. In other words, the average lead was the best one for following erratic motions."

My question:

What is the 'average lead' ? Let's assume the group lead time spread between 0.1s and 0.2s. Is the 0.15s the average lead? Actually, I'd think that the smallest lead time should produce the best result instead of the aveage. The smaller the lead time the faster your response. Is it correct?
