grapemeister Posted March 17, 2016 Share Posted March 17, 2016 It shows me over 20 years younger. That makes my day. I wonder if reaction time to a sound like a shot timer has anything to do with reaction to a visual signal or stimuli ....in other words, is there any correlation. For example, I wonder if lots of time practicing reacting to a timer helps with my reaction time to a visual signal, too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shadyscott999 Posted March 17, 2016 Share Posted March 17, 2016 My internet connection is dismal. Its all choppy. I keep getting 65-80 year old reaction times. I'm only 39. Although it is 5:30 am and I'm only through 1/2 of my coffee. Who knows, I'll try later and see how it goes. I can do sub 1.0 sec draws consistently. I think connection speed has a lot to do with this. I can draw in the .70s at will and am getting 77 years old on this test. My connection at home is terrible.

Different parts of the brain. But light does travel about 1 million times faster than sound I think we should have a strobe flash that goes off went the start button is pushed. Just kidding.

Nebwake Posted March 17, 2016 Share Posted March 17, 2016 When I first did it this afternoon, I was averaging about 3.25. After 4 beers I am about 3.75. While slower, that is better than I figured I would be Sent from my SM-G930V using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I tried it again at work on a computer that's faster and with a faster internet connection. I'm 49 and was getting 25 year old times at home. At work I'm getting sub human times, or the "We're not sure you're human" times. Edited March 17, 2016 by grapemeister Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve RA Posted March 17, 2016 Share Posted March 17, 2016 (edited) Agree on the internet speed - I live in an apartment where it's furnished and I'm about 30 years faster at times of less use by tenants. Gained 37 years @ 3:30 AM today. Edited March 17, 2016 by Steve RA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reshoot Posted March 17, 2016 Share Posted March 17, 2016 I am 67 but, have the reaction time of someone younger . . . like 62 I have noticed, especially over the last two years, that I have REALLY slowed down. I still have a 9/10 second dry fire draw but, I am very slow working through a match stage. Getting old SUCKS! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

grapemeister Posted March 17, 2016 Share Posted March 17, 2016 As I'm sitting here switching back and forth from dry firing, playing Zuma on the computer, looking at the Enos forums, and watching the news, it dawned on me that you're a bunch of sick individuals. But, I'm proud to be one of you. Anyhow, I find that I'm faster if I react to the first sign of red and kind of in my peripheral, rather than seeing the whole stop sign. Kind of like how we react to the shot timer....reacting to the B in the beep, instead of waiting for the whole beep. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AdamMP9 Posted March 18, 2016 Share Posted March 18, 2016 I'm averaging in the high 200's , I'll take that for being 10 years older lol . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jrguar Posted March 18, 2016 Share Posted March 18, 2016 Guys.. keep in mind while reaction time is great it is only one part of the equation... deliberate efficient movement can make a HUGE difference... Remember the old mantra.. "Slow is smooth.....Smooth is fast..." Also averaged 23 years old on the timer at 60 on the planet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi-Power Jack Posted March 18, 2016 Share Posted March 18, 2016 I just got a .303 Not bad for a 71 year old. Now, if only I could shoot faster. My wife, was deemed NOT HUMAN - .254 seconds. I'll Never live this down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have never really practices much with a timer (yet) but I know this, my reaction to the beep sucks.And, it means even more. Our reaction to the timer, and draw speed is really insignificant compared to the importance of transition times, keeping the gun up and being ready to shoot at the earliest possible moment, etc., etc. But, placing importance to reacting to the B in the beep can set us up, psychologically, for the rest of the stage. Being aggressive on the start can put us in that mind set of importance and aggressiveness for everything else involved in the rest of the stage. I hope that makes some kind of sense.
