Ya not a problem. So long as they are in a row and on video that works.

That is really good. Looks like you upped your score considerably.

13 ms at 33 inch target

1300cm χ84= 15.4

15.4 x 74% hit rate =11.4 score

NOOCs new top score is 11.4

Huge increase.

Max Accuracy Scoring Thread
Reply #46 - May 2nd, 2021 at 10:07am
 
Ok, due to my disorganization starting out where I accepted all entries, I’m going to have two columns here. One is free style. You can have a minimum of 10 shots. We can’t accept anything less than 10 although if you want to post numbers from a good run that has say...5 shots, feel free. You need a 33% hit rate on the 10 shots for it to count on this thread. So 1/3 of all shots have to be hits FOR FREESTYLE. Remember the targets on both freestyle and official have to be just one target. If there is a large target and a diana in the middle we can score this as only the hits you did on the diana or all hits anywhere on the larger target, but that larger target will lower the score. So choose which gives you the best showing. No multiple targets on this thread or I would have to adjust the hit box area each time you knock one of the targets over and I’m far too lazy for that.

——————————————————————————————————————————-

For the Official Scores you need at least 20 shots in a row with no cuts or edits with a hit rate of at least 25%. If you get a really good score without any proof throw it up here and we can see what we can do. Usually if you can do it once you can do it again. Maybe no proof scores that are extremely good will get an asterisk. Once we get a video showing the same result that dirty little asterisk will be taken off. Either way it’s fun to take part.

——————————————————————————————————————————-

Ok so here’s the Freestyle/Official scores. Remember this is a thread to push the limits. Everyone is using different set ups and not all are ideal. Keep that in mind when judging your score. This is just to help motivate you and give you ideas to refine your throw/ammo/set up. (As well as see what the highest accuracy is possible for the sling.)

here’s a 50-shot sequence from last Friday.

Somehow I completely missed this post.  That was awesome man!  Looks like you're getting a really consistent and powerful throw.  Very similar looking to IG's throw.  I love it!
It's making me want to try a few sessions without a rotor.  But that worries me.  Undecided


@Morphy - I've got an update.  I broke the 2/3 barrier.  The sling, distance, etc. is all exactly the same as my other entry.  My session on 4/21 was the following:

Diana - 3
Target - 13
Miss - 8
Hit percentage ≈ 67%

I can post a video if you need it.  Let me know.

Awesome man! Well realistically we dont "need" you to. No one doubts your honesty but for the sake of keeping it fair I think going forward that would be the best idea for everyone. Really I have to have as much proof so when we do see trends (if we do) then we can make sure nothings been missed and answer any doubts people may have.

I love that you are making progress man! Also , hey this just occurred to me. If you have any thing youve been changing to get better scores up we would love to hear it. It might spur some interesting discussion.

Adjusting your new Top Score now.

I wasn't following this thread how do you measure score?

I know that 70% of my throws landed* in ~9° solid angle. It is supposed to be independent of distance but it is measured at 20-40m and I havent done a measurement for quite a while so my avg might have changed for better or worse...

*P.S. : very rough average of 2017,2018,2019 measurements

Pretty simple just post a video showing an unedited shot sequence. Minimum of 10 shots for freestyle whereas official scoring is a minimum of 20 shots in a row unedited with distance and target size. We are using the ADI to determine score.

This thread is to see what the maximum accuracy we can manage to get from the sling is. Use whatever style of throw, sling and ammo you like. Its not really competitive, theres nothing to win or lose expect to challenge yourself to get better.

Free style must have a minimum of 33% hit rate on your target.

Official must have a minimum of 25% hit rate.

You must choose one target as your scoring target. For example we cant distinguish between hits on a diana and hits on the main body of the Balaeric target. You can choose all the hits on a balearic target or just the hits on the diana. A larger target might have more hits but the larger size will tend to lower score unless you only scored a few hits on the diana.

Any info you can give on your throwing style, set up etc is helpful. Thats about it.

Very good accuracy and consistency Sarosh. It would be interesting to see what your score is with a target 3-4 times that big. Many of your shots wouldve been hits I think. 20cm is super small.

Was the ammo fairly consistent?

I don't know what I gonna do with target size yet. The ammo varied in mass and shape, at this close range the effects are diminished but still exist. The main problem I try to solve right now is that I cant focus enough when I'm slinging.

There is a force field around small targets which causes no hits but many near misses. In your video you broke through it somehow.

But it’s like can size objects have this mind of their own. They repel objects that are trying to hit them.

Sarosh a few of us have been working on this problem outside the forum and have figured out you can use the force field effect to your advantage. Simply hang two small can size objects on either side of the intended target and it will funnel your shots into a bullseye. I suspect IG is using this technique and then editing out the cans to make it look legit.

Likewise I have made can bolas to throw at animals I intend on hunting to greatly increase my odds of hitting them with a sling.

No, no, no.  If the force field is giving you problems, you just need to clear your mind.  Feel the stone.  Wink
