I’m looking for recommendations from anyone who has experience with shot timers. I’ve never owned one, but used one at church quals a week ago. I’d like to get my own but don’t have any idea which one to buy. Thanks for any insight you may have.

Ron If you have a smart phone you can download a free app.. It may or may not work for your exact needs, but it works well for what I want..
I try to stick with the basics, they do so well. Nothing fancy mind you, just plain jane will get it done with style. You want to see an animal drop right now? Shoot him in the ear hole. BSA MAGA

My church has armed security called Safety Services of which I’m a member. The church requires carry guys and gals to qualify once a year on the OPOTA (Ohio Peace Officers Training Academy) handgun course. It’s a liability insurance thing. This is the target we shoot from 4 feet out to 50 feet. 25 rounds with a minimum score of 20 to pass. Hits in the light gray are a point. Hits in the dark gray are zero points. Hits outside the dark gray are minus a point. Ron

Crazy indeed. For the guys with the phone apps, which one(s) do you use/recommend? I saw some were free and some weren't

Nothing crazy about being well prepared. I’ve been the Campus Lead in Safety since 2019. I’ve been on the Safety team since I retired in 2018. It takes a good guy with a gun to stop a bad guy with a gun. Or should I say a good guy with a set of balls in light of the recent Uvalde incident.

Ron Indeed. Warms my heart to see churches stepping up and handling their own security. Though it's a sad reflection on our society that it's needed.

Glad to see churches doing something about it.
I’ll bet there are churches out there that don’t allow carry yet.
