Archery at the 1984 Summer Olympics was contested in the format used since 1972.

There were two events: men's individual and women's individual.

Points were in a format called the double FITA round, which included 288 arrows shot over four days at four different distances: 70 meters, 60 meters, 50 meters, 30 meters for women; 90 meters, 70 meters, 50 meters, 30 meters for men.

It was the fourth, and last, time that the format was used in Olympic competition.
