    Shot timers.

    Does anyone have their own or just use club ones?

    If you have one what do you use and where did you purchase.

    Cheers

    Used the CED 3000 it works great.

    Look on the App store as there is plenty of free shot timer apps available for your phone.

    Cheers

    I've got a PACT club timer, you can have a play with it, works pretty well + simple.

    Yep. We will get it out in a couple weeks for a play when we get out for a shot.

    Basic CED ones are good, phone app versions were not great

    I tried some app ones for my phone and they were not what you would expect. Might just buy one that can clip onto my rig.

    I've got a CED7000, does the job and have it set to a 3" delay for when I practising. The ShotMaxx ones look good too, would prob get one of those now if I was buying for the 1st time.

    Do you use electronic earmuffs?
    I've used a app on the phone, and plugged the 3.5mm jack into the earmuffs - no issue with sound.
    Didn't like the app (and cant for the life of me remember what one it was....) so deleted. Must have another look for one.
    Please excuse spelling, as finger speed is sometimes behind brain spped........ Or maybe the other wayy.....

    Yup I use electronic muffs.
    I just bought a competition electronics timer. Looks simple and all the phone apps I tried had issues.

    It isn't flash to look at and slightly bigger than most but has never let me down.
    Very simple to use.

    I do reckon it sometimes reads slower than I shoot a stage tho😆

    Club has timers but after using mine they are going to buy a couple.
    I have got it wet, dropped it heaps and it still goes like a charm.

    Pretty happy with it.
    Sky remote for size. It is very lite tho.
