The article discusses an approach that allows determining the onset of fatigue in an athlete-archer during exercises on a computer simulator in the pre-competition period using instrumental tools. It is evident that the results of series decrease as fatigue accumulates. The article proposes a methodology for determining the number of shots fired before one or several unsuccessful series occur. Conversely, by avoiding or controlling the number of shots fired, it is possible to demonstrate the maximum result achievable in terms of physical and technical readiness. The methodology can be applied to assess the readiness of the athlete-archer during exercises without time constraints, for processing shot parameters in the following exercises: shooting from a standard pistol at a distance of 50 meters, shooting from an air pistol at a distance of 10 meters, and shooting from a standard pistol at a distance of 25 meters (precision part of the exercise).
