cyburg Posted June 4, 2013 Share Posted June 4, 2013 A few weeks ago I came across iMarksman on Facebook. I noticed a post asking for people to test a new item for him. So I replied and was sent the iDryfire app to test. This app that is now available in the apple store for $12.99 works with any laser cartridge, SIRT Pistol, beam hit or other laser type device that fits in your barrel for training. Currently I am using the Beam Hit system until I get a laser cartridge for my Shadow. Like a lot of people I get side tracked sometime when I dry fire, get a little sloppy or I may loose focus. As we know when we dry fire we get what we put into it. When you get sloppy or rush the draw or shot. We say things like, ya that was a 5 or perfect head shot. With this app you get to see where your shot hit and brings your focus back in. To set it up, set a target up, open the app and push the Start Button, find something to set your iphone or ipad on that will let the camera face the target and adjust the camera closer or farther to fill the screen up with the target. Once you are ready, press the start button on the top right and it will give you a count down. The buzzer will sound and the timer will begin. At this time it will only register the first hit and stop, the you can look at the screen and see where you hit the target and the time. The current version is great for working on that first shot, or starting at full presentation. When starting at full presentation, hit the start button and once the buzzer goes off, conduct a reload and fire. If you would like more information on this check out the web site, www.idryfire.com/#sthash.BzKvuEez.dpbs. It has a video demonstration and more information to look at. I have also talked with Andrey Safanyuk of iMarksman and providing my feedback on the app. The app will continue to be updated with new features such as allowing to record multiple shots and save the times and screen shot. I will try to post some videos of the app and my experience with it tomorrow night. Has anyone else had a chance to use it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cyburg Posted June 13, 2013 Author Share Posted June 13, 2013 www.idryfire.com I was asked if I have a stake in iMarksman due to my review. I do not have any affiliation with the company. I was at a match checking Facebook and I saw that iMarksman was looking for someone to test a new product. I replied and received the bata program. I have been checking out his site and trying to win that full iMarksman set up. I posted a few messages and we started messaging, I inquired as to how much, what is included and told him I needed to see if it would fit into mu budget. I also mentioned that if I bought it, it would be for my birthday. So, I now also have the iMarksman and I cant wait to get it set up and do some reviews on it. Do to the storms here tonight I will not get it set up. But I have been playing with it on the computer, setting up a few courses I have created and I plan to build a few classifiers to start with. Check facebook also for more info on this product. Like his page if you wish and see what else he has to offer. On of his problems is not knowing how to market it to USPSA and idpa. He does not shoot USPSA and wants to learn about it. Mike Hughs of SRT also uses his program with the SRT pistols. I have found he is very personable and will be more than happy to talk to you.
