If you guys aren't putting your scores in the NASGA database I strongly suggest you do. Not only does it give you a nice record, but it helps to compare yourself to others in your class.
What I find actually the most useful aspect of it, is checking how my scores stand up to the World Records.
Basically, each event is scored as a percentage of the WR. For example, if WR in Open Stone is 50 ft, then a 25 ft throw would be 500 points. Each event is scored this way.
When looking at my numbers I can see that in most cases I fall in the 550-650 range. However, when it comes to my HWFD and LWFD I see that I am in the 490-550 range, thus telling me that Weights are my "worst" event. If I want to bring up my overall score, I need to focus a lot more on my weights than perhaps my stones, which are already in the 600 zone.
