From placement to a clearer record

A simple way to review your shooting.

01 / RECORD

Place each shot

Choose a distance, add the competition name and select scoring shots or sighters. Tap the target to record the position; the ring sets the score.

02 / EXPLORE

Look closer at your groups

See scoring shots in blue and sighters in black. Zoom into a group, view different distances and remove an incorrectly placed marker.

03 / REVIEW

Keep the detail that matters

Track dropped shots and points lost, with sighters kept out of the points total. Add shot notes, review the target summary and save a picture of your plot.

Before you start

A few useful things to know.

Can I open the program now?

The welcome page is public. The shooting program is available after your bank payment is checked and access is approved, or after free access is granted. Renewals are also approved manually.

Where are my shot records kept?

Records are saved in the browser on the device you use. They do not automatically sync between your phone and laptop. Save a picture of important plots before clearing browser data. Your membership name, sign-in email and access dates are stored separately to manage access.

What does the summary tell me?

It brings together your plotted groups, section guidance and shot notes to help you review a session. It is a reference for discussion, rather than a diagnosis of your shooting.

Do I need to install anything?

The program runs in a web browser. Once you have access, you can add a shortcut to your phone’s home screen for convenient opening.
