[Archers] New Archery Rule Change

[Garth G. Groff]

Noble friends,

Interesting point about the 100 yard visibility rule. This virtually 
eliminates ALL woods shoots, since trees and underbrush can obscure 
vision behind the targets. Ditto the range for DTG's royals, since it 
has a stand of trees behind it. Strange that the range is good enough 
for the archery club that hosts us there, but we cannot use it.

If this is going to be the state of Atlantian archery, we might as all 
resign our warrants, as I doubt if there are many places where we can 
legally shoot.

With deep concern,


Mungo Napier, Shire of Isenfir Archery Marshal

I have received my March Acorn and the new rule was in it.

I also have alot concerns regarding this new rule.  I think Siegfried
summed it up pretty well. Alot of sites that have been perfectly safe in
the past are deemed unsafe now because they do not have 100 yards from
the shooting line. Having visibility of that 100 yards is another
concern, not all ranges are in a totally flat area.

This rule will no doubt elimanate archery at some events. It will be sad
to see it go.
