I've started getting into Olympic Recurve Archery and learning all I can. I was watching some of the Olympics trying to identify what equipment people were using. I came across a spreadsheet of all the equipment used by the 128 archery contestants. I decided it might be nice to put all the data on one sheet to see what was popular looking at Risers, Limbs, Sights, Stabilizers and even Arrow Rests, Plungers, Clickers and Finger Tabs.

Take a look and let me know what you think.

The source for the data is a spreadsheet here: rio2016.arcz.fr/
(It's also in the footer at the bottom of the image).

It does have nocks and feathers which I did not include in the graphic. And you are right, nearly everyone was shooting some form of spin vanes (Spin wings, XSWings, EliVanes).

The spreadsheet might not be perfectly accurate but it did agree with the videos I was watching of the Olympics for the top archers.
