Anybody practice with timer? What are the best drills you've come up with?

I practice with timer. I use a pocket pro. Most of the time I practice my draw. Random beep, one shot timed to hit a 10 - 15 feet target center body mass. Must be sub one second and must hit the target to count.
 
I normally do 100 rounds and get to be about 70 - 75% count.

I'd get a timer if it didn't cost so much. What's it?  Around a hundred bucks. Id rather spend on ammo.  You got a job so I can make more money to afford stuff?

They're around $120. They're nice gadgets. I don't think it helps too much if you don't want to spend the money. I'd agree with you, milsurp fan, I'd spend it on ammo instead. If you are going into competion, it might be a good investment.

How does it time your speed? I think I meant to ask, how does it work?

I'm sure it's sound-activated.  Something goes bang real loud and that's like a stopwatch click.
