About

Precision Target Tracker

Features
Read full description

Precision Target Tracker is a scoring app for archers. Score a round arrow by arrow on your phone, keep every session in one place, and see what your shooting is actually doing over time. SCORE ANY ROUND Plot each arrow on the target face, or tap the keypad when you only want the number. Ends, running totals and X counts add up as you shoot. Built-in rounds cover Vegas 300, NFAA and Lancaster indoors, World Archery 18m, Outdoor 360 from 10m to 80m, the 900 Round, Field Archery over 24 targets, 3D and the Flint Round. SCORE EVERYONE ON THE TARGET Shooting with other archers on one target? Score them all on one phone. Everyone gets their own card, and each archer's round lands in their own history. CLUB EVENTS AND LEAGUES See what is on the calendar, join an event, and shoot league nights under your club's own handicap rule. Drop-ins are handled, so a night you miss does not wreck the standings. PRACTICE COUNTS TOO Log practice ends alongside scored rounds, so your arrow count reflects everything you actually shot, not only the competitions. YOUR NUMBERS, NOT JUST YOUR SCORES Score trend, weekly arrow volume, personal bests by round and X counts — enough to tell a good week from a good day. START WITHOUT AN ACCOUNT Score as a guest and your sessions stay on the phone. Create an account when you want them backed up, and everything you already scored moves across with you. THE SAME DATA AS THE WEBSITE Anything scored here appears at precisiontargettracker.com, and anything scored there appears here. One account, one history.
