Bullseye Match - free app for Android, iOS and Windows

Bullseye Match performs the range officer operations for a course of Precision Pistol. It plays Prep, Slow fire, Timed and Rapid fire range calls for a "300" Gallery or full "600" or "900" Aggregate relay. It is designed to be simple and intuitive for shooters. It can be used for training, timing, or to run an entire match.

Tapping the target plays each string, and the match moves forward automatically. The calls play with regulation timing, followed by the start signal. It counts down the time, plays the stop signal and closing calls, then advances to the next round. If you finish early, tap the target to finish or cancel the round. Another tap begins the next relay, until all stages are fired.

Buttons indicating the upcoming round can be used to skip, replay or change the sequence manually. The buttons will slide to display the match clearly and make selection easy. Timer functions are available for self-timing, drills, and match preparation.

The app also provides a scoring calculator for B2, B3, B6, B8 and B16 targets, with ring scores, X count and Alibi corrections. It can capture photographs of scored targets, watermarking them with the date, time and any scoring information.

All types of audio are supported, including bluetooth, and mixed with any other streams, so it can be used while listening to other audio, if desired. Selfie-type clickers for remote control work too, great for use in club matches!

Target turning can also be controlled from the app. The PTTC Personal Target Turning Controller from Freedom Technologies is supported, initially.

And:

Bullseye Match is FREE and without ads.

We hope you enjoy using it, which was developed with the team at Riverside Gun Club. The author enjoys sharing it with the bullseye community everywhere. Please use it to support bullseye shooting activities!

Works very well for most part and the only thing that I found was that at the end of a string, it attempts to edge the target but only turns about 15 degrees and then faces the target again. It should turn 90* and edge completely.

Couple of suggestions:
The ability to also shoot and score a single target at a time would be nice, instead of shooting a 300, 600 or 900 match.

Some leagues shoot 600 matches as two NMC’s back to back. Possible to provide that format as well?

Hmm, this is new. Were you using the standard "Tone" signal? That should allow for at least a full second to complete the edge, before pausing a bit then attempting to face. I'll check with Fenton on PTTC stuff too.
I was using the Horn instead of the standard Tone signal as far as the selection in the app goes, but I think the start sound is actually muted when used in conjunction with the PTTC?

You can go into the calculator, photograph the target, etc at any time. Even when it advances to the next stage, it will automatically offer the previously-finished stage in the calculator first, as well as the camera.

I asked about that on this forum a ways back and nobody mentioned this. It's certainly a possibility, but is it really too different from just doing 2 NMC's in a row? I'm ok with the idea of the option.
It's just different in the order that the app presents the stages as opposed to the order they are shot. No big deal, just a thought.

Thanks!

You're not alone. The app does not yet appear in the Google Play Store. Perhaps another day or two...

Back last century, or about the turn, while the current Windows version was 98, I wrote a rather involved full Windows program that included everything needed to run a full 2700 without actually saying anything.  (It even had branching for refires built in.)  It had all the bells and whistles and I even made a controller to interface with target systems, that ran off the parallel port.  There wasn't much interest at the time, because no one really wanted to carry a computer and monitor to the range control point, there were few laptops being used and few sound systems had the necessary extra audio input connector.  Windows, at their very next version, tied up the parallel port, so that wasn't usable any longer.

What I did discover in using mine at local matches, was that although it was easy to step through each command, it took longer overall.  Time-wise, using the computer and not saying a single thing took around 20 minutes longer per 900, than when I ran them without the program.

The next thing I learned was that the commands listed in the rule book are subject to change.  Specifically, their unload, etc. rule was altered to include ECIs, so that audio file needed to be updated.  I decided to give up on the whole project and shelved it.

I am actually very glad to see someone has found a way to bring this type of application to the community and that the technology has advanced far enough to make it easily available for nearly everyone.  I'm especially happy to see it offered for free.  (Imagine if you had ads showing up throughout Slow Fire...)

A big "Thank You" to the developers. (Now to figure out how to d/l the app. . .)
