Background
The Performance Method is based on a statistical analysis of three years of national championship results. The article The Performance Method: An Improved Archer Ranking System for Determining a “Shooter of the Year” describes the method including the math that makes it work.
The Formulas
Seventeen different archery rounds are included with formulas for compound and recurve archers. See how the performance points are calculated for each possible score including the Excel formulas you need to apply the method to your own work.
Application
