Has anybody tried the Iphone / Ipod Touch application on Saul Kirsch's website:
IPSCore - IPSC / USPSA Practical Shooting Scoring Application for iPhone & iPod
This seems like the future of USPSA scoring. I can imagine a range with Wifi, RO's with Ipod Touches (or Ipads) and entering the data in real time (no more syncing Palm Pilots or paper score sheets).
I would really like to hear the opinion of people who have experience with scoring USPSA matches (Rhino, MSquared) to see what they think. I've talked with Mark about match scoring in the past, and was shocked to hear how much time it takes to score a normal match (3-5 hours!). As an impatient shooter, I'd always love to have the scores right away so that I know how I did, but I completely understand that the scorekeepers have a life, and are unpaid volunteers (thanks guys!).
I see this as an opportunity to make USPSA scoring in Indiana even better; to help us to get quicker scores, and hopefully to take the workload off guys like Rhino and MSquared so that they can just enjoy the match like regular folks . Maybe if we had enough support for something like this, we could throw a fundraiser match to save up the money for the gear?
