May be of interest to some of you... some of you may already have it.  We hardly ever keep score when practicing, mainly due to the bother of having to sort out paper and pen.  I stumbled across this today which allows anyone with a mobile phone that runs JAVA applications to use their phone to score NFAS rounds.  It's really simple to use, and carries some great stats.  It doesn't do anything fancy like download scores top your PC, but it acts admirably as a score pad - It even works out your average scores over previous targets, showing you what you can expect to finish the course on if you continue shooting this average.  It's configurable up to 50 targets, and 10 archers, accounts for different peg scoring, and can be toggled on/off for 24 scoring.
It's certainly something I'll be trying out.  Had a bit of a faff to get it to work with my Samsung phone, but a bit of applied button bashing should get you there or thereabouts.

Tried it out around the woods today, and it works really well.  Much easier than pen and pad scoring.  I give it a 'Chedawan, good tool' rating!
