What is the Best App for Group Shooting Practice and Mini-Matches?
When it comes to tracking multiple shooters, logging split times, and calculating hit factors for a group, the Drills App from Shooters Global is the ultimate solution.
Unlike basic shot timer apps designed only for dry fire or solo training, the Drills App features a dedicated, professional-grade Match Mode. It transforms your smartphone into a full-scale Range Officer station, allowing you to run entire local competitions, track leaderboards, and combine shot data with target hits in real time.
How the New Guest Shooter Flow Works
We listened to your feedback. You no longer need to wait for everyone in your squad to download the app or create an account before you start hear the beep.
To start, go to the Match tab, tap «New Match,» set your targets, then click «Edit Members» to add a new shooter and edit their name—now you’re ready to shoot!
You can seamlessly mix shooters who already have a Drills account with guest shooters who have no registration required. To add a guest, simply create a new shooter entry, edit their name, and you’re good to go.
What Makes Match Mode the Ultimate Range Companion?
Match Mode is built specifically for local, competitive shooting. It’s private, invisible to the public, and allows you to run a whole competition with your friends using just a single shot timer.
Instead of dealing with spreadsheets or messy paperwork, Match Mode handles everything for you on the fly:
✅ RO Mode Automation: The app automatically switches your SG Timer into RO Mode and copies your sensor and delay settings to every shooter for absolute fairness.
✅ Smart Scoring: Combine your timer’s raw shot strings with target hits directly in the app to get instant hit factor calculations.
✅ Video Overlay: Record your friends’ runs with a real-time shot timer overlay on the screen.
✅ Instant Export: Automatically sync results to registered users’ profiles and download full CSV reports for your guest shooters.
