Version 2 sounds like it will address a lot of those issues. Also, despite what I said I've spent all afternoon playing with it while waiting for the cricket to start, so that should be amended to, "now I've tried it, I'll spend some time figuring out a more intelligent comment".

My comment about it only accepting one round wasn't very clear. Certainly it is possible to enter any number of arrows and from that get a better average, but I meant that it only accepts one block of data. In other words, you cannot currently tell it; "this was round A, this was round B, etc", as well as being unable to specify many of the factors that would affect results such as distance.

From your reply it is clear that this is being addressed in V2 and this should become a very helpful program.

What I'd like to be able to do is enter rounds shot at different distances, different targets etc, and see what differences actually appear. I felt that the current version was not sufficiently detailed to give more than a predicted score, but V2 sounds like it will be a useful analytical tool.

Ps: I have a history of tournament nerves being the most important factor in my shooting, so yes, I have other issues as well.
