Favorite Scott" has a good point here. Let me modify my suggestion of
non-marshaled shooting stations. How about we have red sashes, 3 X 18
inches. Any warranted marshal in a team, or all marshals, wear one on
their draw arm. That way we could have roving marshals watching more than
one station, reducing the marshal load, and be able to easily identify which
groups may need to be watched more carefully, i.e. those without a shooting
marshal. By wearing the sash on the draw arm it would be highly visible
and yet not interfer with the archer's shooting.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

Bow,<BR><BR>I'm not comfortable with the notion of having one marshal cover
several targets. From my experience last year, some people needed help
understanding the rules (not that they were all that badly stated at Pennsic).
We also had a problem of overlapping safety zones, with some people wanting to
retrieve arrows before shooting had stopped at the adjacent target. Finally,
there were beginners and youngsters who did not fully understand the safety
rules (as an example from the recent Chalice shoot, I stopped a young man who
was behind the shooting line and was about to loose an arrow over the head of
someone in front of him). I would still like to see one marshal per target,
unless we organize the shooters into teams under the direction of a traveling
marshal, which probably wouldn't work for so big a shoot with people wanting
to join all day. Why weren't there more marshals from the other kingdoms? Just
because we sponsor the shoot, other marshals should still make themselves
available.<BR><BR>Perhaps it would help to limit the range to 12 targets
instead of 14. We could increase the number of arrows at each target, so as
not to "cheapen" our product.<BR><BR>Yours
