About Draw To Jack
In Lawn Bowls, or Indoor Bowls, it's often necessary to carefully see who's wood is closest to the Jack. Drawing to the Jack - often contentious! #Bowls #Bowling #Lawn and Indoor Bowls hashtags, or Outdoor Bowls on the Green venues both in #Australia #UK
Sometimes, it's very difficult to get down on the floor with the ruler or tape measure, and not very dignified at that. Anyone over a certain age will know how difficult and undignified that can be.
Draw To Jack ... solves that in a snapshot. Draw to Jack takes the guesswork out of wondering which wood is closest to the Jack. Not only that, but you can take a quick snapshot of that winning shot by pressing the little dot near the bottom of the screen. The app works best on iPhones but does equally well in the iPad range. You'll love it.
You can stand over the jack, carefully placing your feet, and focus the red dot in the screen centre on the Jack. The rings will then give you a quick indication of which wood is closest to the Jack. Indeed, which of a number of woods are closest to the Jack.
It doesn't matter if your handshakes and the lines wander all over, simply line up the dot in the centre on the Jack, and click the camera shutter. You will then have a stable picture.
No more crawling about the floor with your tape measure, struggling to get back on your feet.
Even if you are not exactly over the grouping of woods, you can be off to one side a little way, and because of the two-dimensional effect, you can still get a fairly accurate view of where each bowl, or wood, is placed.

The addition of image date stamping makes your record keeping so much easier. Each image now has the full date and time of the image included at the top of the image. For user convenience, the shutter sound is now enabled, as well as the shutter simulation - the screen "blinks" when you take a snapshot.
There are also some minor code improvements to make using the app a better experience. Basic instruction is included, and now widely available through #Bowls #Bowling #Lawn and Indoor Bowls hashtags, or Outdoor Bowls on the Green venues both in #Australia #UK and all other places where users play. Problem-solving is now easy by monitoring the app itself. Although I expect few problems!

Added a display of the basic rules for the game to enhance player appreciation, especially useful for new players in the game. Some code updates to help along the way. Put in place some of the mechanisms to allow Social Media integration at a future date if there is a call for such a facility among the younger set.
