Mantis X10 シューティングパフォーマンスシステム最上位機種

I've been a firearms enthusiast for many years, but in recent years, I have had to walk away for a bit. Having young children makes it difficult to get away for a full day to go enjoy shooting at the range. I'm a data-driven techie nerd who loves gadgets, and had actually been fantasizing about a tool like this for many years. So when I first saw the Mantis product a while back, I remember thinking it was an exciting new tool, but wasn't able to justify getting it at the time, because I didn't know when I'd actually be able to use it, being that I haven't been doing much shooting in recent years. I recently got into archery, as a way to satisfy my 'marksmanship' bug, easily, safely, and conveniently, on my own time, and my own terms, in my back yard as time allows, any time I feel like it. While discussing my new hobby with a friend, he mentioned that he had been using the Mantis X10 on both firearms and his bow, and had been impressed with the results. Since I'd been waiting for an excuse to get one, I figured what the hell, and took the plunge as well. I'm not really one to worry too much about packaging, but it often does reflect the care and pride that the company puts into the product, and in the case of the Mantis x10, the packaging is phenomenal. It's packaged like you'd expect any high-end electronics item to be packaged, and includes a very nice zippered semi-hard shell case with cut foam insert. The unit itself is surprisingly small. Measuring roughly 1-1/2"x1"x3/4" There isn't really a way to attach it to a bow included with the device. But that was easily remedied, in my case, by simply taping a section of picatinny rail to my bow sight's rail. If you're not already a gun enthusiast with parts like that laying around in your parts bin, you will probably want to pick something like that up when ordering the device. Depending on your particular bow, you may have to get creative in how and where you go about attaching the unit. I imagine that with a trad bow, the need for creative attachment solutions only goes up. I've since purchased a 3D printer; and if I were to do it over, I'd probably end up designing and printing an attachment solution. I may end up doing that eventually, but the taped on rail has been working great for now. Once you get the thing attached, setup and orientation is a breeze. It takes a few seconds to figure out which axis is which, and get them switched around, but it's easily done, and there's a little 'question mark' in the software for each section that explains it, if you simply tap the '?' icon. I would've liked the option to be able to run the rail inline with the riser of the bow, but it is required to be oriented horizontally, with 'forward, or backward' (indicating the direction the usb charging port is oriented. Again, with the device being designed specifically for firearms, it's not surprising that this option isn't designed in, but it would make mounting options a little easier for certain bows. The data gathering and graphing software in the archery section is pretty much identical to the firearm software, and it works quite well. It took me longer than it probably should have to figure out that I didn't have to manually reset for each shot, so I spent a decent amount of time doing that before I realized that I didn't have to 'stop' and 'resume' between shots. Totally my fault for making that assumption in the first place. Each time you open the software, it lets you choose a couple of quick options about the setup (compound or recurve, and left or right handed shooting), and it remembers the settings from the previous session, so if nothing has changed about your setup, you just tap 'start' and you're off to the races. When you go retrieve arrows, you can then use the software to 'score' each arrow on the target. If you're shooting at a bullseye type of target, it's great. There are some settings to choose a few different styles and sizes of targets, as well as your shooting distance. But I'd like to see the ability to import a photo of the actual target actually being shot at, so that when shooing a bag or a 3d target, you can score it accurately and track it objectively. Even just a few options for different target shapes within the software would be nice, but I think being able to import photos would be ideal. On the note of the limited options of targets, one other minor item for the wish list, for a dumb American like myself who still finds himself stuck using the imperial system, it would be nice to switch from metric. All targets sizes, and target distance are in metric. This isn't a HUGE deal, but after 36 years of thinking in inches, feet, and yards, it takes extra brain power to convert centimeters to inches. Personally, I wish the U.S. just take the plunge and get on the metric system with the rest of the world, but in the meantime, it'd be nice to be able to choose imperial measurements. I generally like to leave my bow on the concrete pad where I'm shooting from, on a 'bow jack', and just walk over with the phone in hand to score the shots and retrieve my arrows. This works great out to about 25 yards. Nearly all of my shooting is done at about 30 yards, so it disconnects right when I get close to the target. It's not that big of a deal, but the software gives an alert every time, and you have to clear it before you can score the target. When you get back to resume shooting, the device has turned itself off, so you must press the pairing button again and click 'resume' in the software in order to get it to reconnect and resume the session, and then set/leave the bow sitting on the stand while it re-calibrates. I'd like to be able to customize the time the device waits for a reconnection before turning off, so that pairing doesn't have to be redone manually each time. It would be nice if the device stayed in 'pairing mode' for whatever wait time you specify after losing connection, and then if the device reconnects within that time frame, have it resume the session automatically without any user interaction, or a need to re-calibrate the sensor. This is a small thing, but I believe that it would make the user experience much better. The less time I have to worry about making sure the thing is paired, the more time and mental energy I can focus on my shooting. My other option is to bring my bow with me, and set the cam down in the dirt while scoring the shots and pulling arrows, which isn't ideal either. I don't have a lone enough stabilizer to be able to use it as a point of contact when using the bow jack. Of course, the trade off of keeping the device in pairing mode for a longer amount of time would be a reduction in battery life, but I don't think it'd be much of an issue, considering that the battery life on this thing is absolutely phenomenal. I charged the device once the very first time I used it. I can't say for sure how many hours of use it's actually seen without the need for a charge, but it's been quite a bit of shooting. I've gotten WAY more battery life out of the thing than I ever expected, and it's still going strong. On that note, a battery life indicator in the software would be a nice added feature, but the battery life is so good that it's not particularly necessary just another 'nice to have' for the list. If you charge it up before you head to the range with it, you shouldn't have to worry about it at all. And in my case where I've just been using it at home, it won't a big deal to slap it on the charger, whenever I finally do reach the point of needing to recharge it. On the 'coaching' side of things, the firearm software has tons of drills and coaching feedback. That's fantastic for guys like me who can't get to the range much. Unfortunately, none of my holsters work with the mantis attached to the rail, so I'll have to figure out a good way to attach to the magazine baseplate before I can really put the holster drills to use. The dry-fire training is fantastic, and you can get an audible scoring of each shot, without having to look at the phone. With the archery software, it's much more bare bones. Some of this is just due to the nature of archery. You can't do dryfire drills, or holster drills with a bow, so those portions are moot. But all that aside, when it comes to the archery software, you're kind of left on your own to analyze the data and draw your own conclusions on what you did right or wrong. The 'playback' feature is very useful to identify your release and follow through, and it does give you a so-called 'stability score', but it's hard to tell what exactly it is gauging that off of. Particularly if you end up making any adjustments to your form before actually releasing the arrow. I'd love to see more development of the 'coaching' side of things, similar to what is available on the firearms software, and a more in-depth explanation of what it's taking into account as part of the 'stability score'. And it would be nice if I could get it to give an audible indication of the 'stability score' the way it does in the firearms software. And maybe there is a way to get it to do that, but I haven't found it. It's not in the same place as the firearms software, if there is. What I like about the firearms software is that it gives feedback like 'not enough trigger' or 'too much trigger', etc. Feedback like that would be incredible for things like "too much bow cant," "Too much torque," "not enough followthrough." etc. It's probably too much to expect for it to be able to identify smaller issues like face pressure. But it should be able to identify cant, torque, target panic, 'punching' the release, etc, and immediately call attention to it. It does have the ability to select each portion of the shot sequence, (setup, hold, and release), and drill down to get more detailed graphed data of what exactly was going on. Including cant and torque. But you have to go looking for it on each shot. A 'stability score' for each of those portions of the sequence would be useful, in my opinion. But you can still look at the graphs and get a pretty good idea of that on your own. Given the fact that the archery feature is a much newer, and I imagine much less-used, feature, I'm satisfied with where it's at for now, and hopeful for future improvements and innovation. In the meantime, I have definitely seen an improvement in my own shooting, with the ability to immediately confirm whether the way a shot 'feels' matches up with what is actually going on in the real world. And then the ability to go and quantify it on the target and see how everything matches up on that end as well. If it seems like I'm focusing on the negative, I'm really straining at gnats in that regard. All in all, I have found it to be an extremely useful tool, and overall easy to use. I can't wait to put it to use on some firearms at the range as well, when I have time to get back into that game. And I'm looking forward to being able to get together with friends again, once the pandemic scare is over, and get their feedback on it as well. I have a feeling that once they get the chance to try it, several more friends will be looking to pick them up a unit of their own; and I'll hopefully be able to put the 'group training' feature to use, and 'gamify' our training by adding a friendly competitive element. It's a great product that only has the potential to get even better, and I'm thoroughly thrilled to have it!

Dopo un mese di utilizzo intensivo del Mantis X10 Elite, posso dire che è stato uno degli acquisti migliori per il mio allenamento al tiro. Come tiratore sportivo che frequenta il poligono 2-3 volte al mese, cercavo uno strumento che mi permettesse di allenarmi anche a casa con il dry fire. Qualità costruttiva e setup: Il dispositivo è incredibilmente compatto e ben realizzato. L'installazione sulla slitta Picatinny della mia Glock è stata immediata, e la connessione Bluetooth con l'app funziona perfettamente. La batteria dura davvero a lungo - dopo centinaia di colpi registrati sono ancora al 60%. Esempio di allenamento pratico: Ieri sera ho fatto una sessione di 45 minuti a casa. Ho iniziato con 20 colpi di dry fire per "primo colpo" - il sistema mi ha dato un punteggio medio di 87/100, identificando una leggera tendenza a tirare verso sinistra dovuta alla pressione del grilletto. Poi ho fatto 30 estrazioni dalla fondina con analisi completa: tempo medio 1.8 secondi con punteggio stabilità 82/100. L'app mi ha suggerito esercizi specifici per migliorare la fluidità dell'estrazione. Miglioramenti tangibili: In un mese i miei risultati al poligono sono migliorati visibilmente. Il raggruppamento a 15 metri è passato da circa 12 cm a 7 cm, e la mia consistenza nel primo colpo è aumentata del 40%. L'analisi del rinculo e del controllo del grilletto mi ha fatto capire errori che facevo da anni senza accorgermene. Funzionalità eccezionali: L'analisi dell'estrazione dalla fondina è fantastica - ti mostra esattamente dove perdi tempo e stabilità. Le 14 modalità di allenamento offrono varietà infinita, e i grafici storici ti permettono di monitorare i progressi nel tempo. Rapporto qualità-prezzo: Considerando che una lezione con un istruttore qualificato costa 50-80€ l'ora, il Mantis X10 Elite si ripaga da solo in pochissimo tempo. Inoltre puoi allenarti quando vuoi, anche solo 10 minuti prima di andare a dormire. L'unico piccolo limite è che con alcuni calibri più piccoli (22LR) a volte serve calibrare la sensibilità, ma il supporto clienti è ottimo e ti aiuta a risolvere subito. Consigliatissimo a chiunque voglia prendere sul serio il proprio allenamento al tiro!
