After investigating the archery software currently available, it was discovered that Archery Clubs, as an organisation, were lacking a purpose built software solution that covered all aspects of their day-to-day administration. Most of the currently available archery software seems to be aimed at one or two specific areas rather than having a one stop solution.
Longbow has been created to address this gap in the archery software market and aims to minimise all the administrative duties that are performed by Archery Clubs. Longbow takes into account both FITA and GNAS shooting rules and these rules are then implemented to control award schemes, age grouping, handicap calculations etc. Click here to go to the Information Page. Note that there are 4 individual prices to the products. |
New Software. It is free, but the pages currently are all in spanish. I dropped the text into babelfish and got a fairly good idea of what it is. The author is working on an english translation (I hope), but in the meantime, here it is for those archers that are bilingual (that is to say, archers everywhere in the world but the US) (that was a joke - there is at least ONE American that can speak more than one language and still manage to shoot arrows - Lindsey Carmichael! )
Hemos desarrollado un software de ayuda al entrenamiento del arquero, utilizando las tecnologías punteras de informática. Por fin, respuestas inmediatas a tus preguntas:
- ¿Tienes una flecha que no agrupa?
- ¿Tiras igual la primera flecha que la quinta en cada tanda?
- ¿Rindes más al final de la tirada o no te llega la forma física?
- ¿Has completado tu plan de entrenamiento?
- ¿Cual es tu record a 50 metros y qué día lo conseguiste, y con qué equipo y ajustes?
- ¿Con ese nuevo tipo de flechas mejora la agrupación a cortas o a largas distancias? ¿... y con ese milímetro que has subido el punto de encoque?
Nuestro software son dos módulos:
ArcheryLogBook es una aplicación desarrollada para Pocket PC (probada para versiones 2003 y 2005) que nos permite:
- Guardar configuraciones de material de tiro y de sus ajustes (tipo de arco, flechas, cuerdas, etc).
- Grabar las sesiones de entrenamiento, anotando gráficamente los impactos de las flechas lanzadas.
- Proporciona información instantánea de las tendencias de agrupación para ayudar a corregir visor y para diagnosticar problemas de material o técnica de ejecución.
- Proporciona medidas de rendimiento: puntuaciones totales y parciales y gráficas de rendimiento.
- Válido para normas FITA en "sala" y "exterior" (todas las distancias)
- Visualizar todas esas tiradas
PcArcheryLogBook: es una aplicación para Windows (probada en versión XP) que nos permite:
- Sincronizar las base de datos de la PDA con nuestro ordenador personal.
- Archivo permanente para acumular toda la temporada.

- Obtener información útil y gráfica de nuestras tiradas mediante una serie de informes.
- Si estás haciendo la prueba de la flecha desnuda o la prueba francesa para ajustar reposaflechas o botón de presión, la mejor herramienta para saber el centro del grupo es ArcheryLogBook
De otra forma solo sabrás que hiciste 325 a 50m ¿Es eso todo lo que necesitas saber y recordar?

Club Archery
Record Keeping
Are you a Club Records Officer? Would you like to make
your job of keeping records and calculating handicap reductions easier?
How well are you shooting? Better or worse
than last year? What is your average for a FITA? What score should you
expect at 70m? What sightmarks do you need for an Albion?
You know the feeling! It is the end of a
successful tournament, the day has gone well, and all that is left to do is
to award the prizes. Your scoring team are getting stressed trying to put
the piles of score sheets into some kind of order. You are getting stressed
because it is late and everybody wants to get home. A piece of paper is
pressed into your hand and you announce the results. Then someone pipes up
that they got a higher score, or that Fred wasn't shooting recurve but
compound. He had entered as recurve, but brought his compound
instead......nightmare! |

a copy of the software they use to track the entries for the Aggie Indoor.
This is an Access mdb file - you must have MS Access to run the

Right-click to download this file. Anthony also uses Excel to print the
ranking charts. This
is the spreadsheet. Anthony writes:
"The spreadsheet is a bit touchy in that if the user adds or removes a row
on the main page it will give erroneous results on the other pages.
Data on the rows can of course be altered as needed. I have not taken
the time to fix this issue, since I know the problem and just avoid doing
it. To use the spreadsheet correctly the user will input the name and
scores, do a sort based on the scores to arrange the data, and then all the
other pages will be correct. If a new addition needs to be made
afterwards, the user should just fill in the addition at the bottom of the
spreadsheet and then sort again to get the addition to move to the correct
place." |

Archery Suite for the PALM |
The Archery Suite allows
archers to score a round of archery (and much much more).
1. Scoring of a round is achieved by touching a virtual target on the screen
or by selecting an arrow value from a (user definable) grid. The grid can be
operated one-handed, not requiring the stylus. Distance profile, scores, and
totals are available at all times.
2. The round to be scored is selected from a list. This list is under the
archers control. New rounds can be added or unused ones deleted.
3. The scores for the current round and previously scored rounds can be
viewed and print formatted. Distance, round, and multi-round totals can be
viewed and personal best rounds can be found.
4. The suite is Lefty compatible. |
ARROWMASTER - GREAT program
for analyzing arrow behavior and statistical analysis of your shooting!
by Jukka Ojala, Finland
TimeMaster -
shooting timer
ArcMaster competition/member register management system |
"TimeMaster is
a very simple program for the shooting director of archery tournaments. The
original idea has been developed in a finnish archery club, Arcus. Last year
(2002) there appeared a
danish application by Jens Fudge using the same principles: showing
remaining seconds on the screen, generating the beeps using a soundcard, and
using TV sets to produce a bigger display.
What's different in TimeMaster is that it shows the seconds as black digits
on a red/green/yellow background. It also shows the order of shooting: A/B,
A/B/C or AB/CD. " |
| ArrowMaster tracks and helps analyze arrows
and performance |
| ArcMaster is designed to allow rapid entry of scores, and
then generate ranking sheets, leader board info, and OR draws. VERY
nice: "From the very beginning the main goal was to create an
user-friendly system, where the most important phases of running a
competition would be as easy to handle as possible. These phases include
 | adding the participants of the competition |
| assigning the target order |
| printing score cards |
| score entry |
| printing results" |
|

SCORESHEETS

This is
a page with several examples of scoresheets for use and adaptation. Thanks to Jim Krueger
and Steve Lomas for providing these. Some of these Excel spreadsheets are for printing blank forms
while others are able to tally/total scores as you go. |

ArcherSoft TimeIT |
Ingenious system uses televisions as the displays for this
timer system. "Archersoft TimeIt is a program
developed for the shooting director of archery tournaments. The program
times the shooting, and shows not only Red, Green and Yellow colours, it
shows the actual time left. The shooting director directs the shooting from
a pc, the image from the pc is sent to ordinary tv-sets, where they are
visible to the archers. From the soundcard in the pc, the sound is also
generated with one, two or three beeps. " |

ESC (Electronic Score Card) 2.5 for the PALM OS |
Electronic Score Card or ESC for short is a
simple and easy way for you to track your shoot scores. You simply add the
names of each archer you wish to keep scores for and then add the shoots for
that archer. ESC will allow you to add each targets score and it will do
the work of adding it all up for you, plus it tracks your averages. You
can even track the conditions of the shoots... Do you shoot better in open
country with calm weather, or in mountain style shoots. Need an easy visual
clue as to how well you did at the shoots you attend? ESC highlights shoots
in the summary that you did well at. You can even keep track of how much
all your shooting is costing you (whether that's good or bad). |
