Diagnose what's holding back your shooting. The SSDI is a free, research-informed assessment that helps shooters identify the specific skills limiting their performance. It covers precision rifle, practical rifle, pistol, clay shooting, and archery. No sign-up required.
The SSDI covers 28 diagnostic domains across five shooting disciplines. Each discipline measures technique, mental skills, practice habits, and equipment management.
It's easy to train the skills you can name and miss the ones you can't. Get a smart feedback report that points to where you're losing points and how to fix it.
The Shooting Skills Diagnostic Inventory (SSDI) is a research-informed assessment that helps shooters identify the specific skills holding back their performance. It covers precision rifle, practical rifle, pistol, clay shooting, and archery. The SSDI measures areas like mental game, match preparation, fundamentals, and training habits, then generates a smart feedback report from your scored data.
You select your shooting disciplines, then respond to a series of diagnostic items rated on a 1-5 scale. The system calculates domain scores, detects performance patterns using diagnostic flags, and generates a smart feedback report based on your results.
Five disciplines: Precision Rifle (benchrest, F-class, long-range), Practical Rifle (PRS, NRL22, 2-gun), Pistol (bullseye, action pistol, PPC), Clay Shooting (trap, skeet, sporting clays), and Archery (compound, recurve, 3D/field archery).
About 10 minutes for a single discipline, longer if you select multiple. Each discipline has 12–19 items. Your smart feedback report generates in under a minute after you finish.
No. There is no sign-up, no login, and no email required. You get a shareable link to your results that you can bookmark.
Sessions are anonymous. Retaking after deliberate practice is a reasonable way to check whether gaps have closed.
The assessment covers five disciplines: precision rifle, practical rifle, pistol, clay shooting, and archery. Each one measures technique, mental skills, practice habits, and equipment management.
Yes. Beginners often find it useful because the SSDI surfaces gaps that aren't obvious without structured feedback.
The report is generated from your scored domain data and diagnostic flags. It reflects what your responses indicate, not a generic template. Accuracy depends on honest self-assessment.
