Recurve:
21.4%
24.4%
24.0%
30.2%

Perhaps a more useful measure, instead of percentages, would be to look at the relative handicaps of your different distances. That will tell you more accurately which are the distances you need to work on.
Agreed, My percentages (very early in this thread) are based on averages over the last 3 years (not PBs).
