That's a good question and one that Gilli responded to in part.  I was
curious as well.  I know that at the events I have been on the field I have
been instructed on checking gleaned arrows to insure they are still
functional.  I have never seen any classes on the various bits of info.  I
just returned from King's College and there was plenty of field combat
-heavy classes but none on archery.  that would have been a good venue to
hold a beginning class on things.

As far as I can tell. target archery is different from Combat archery.
Concerning the combat there seems to be inspection marchals which I agree
you have to be trained at and there are field marshalls for checking arrows
- which almost anyone can do.  at Gulf War, I was repeatedly told to check
with field combat marshalls about certain things.  Some of them had not
clue as to the rules of combat archery, ballista and other thrown objects.

The archery marshalls who inspect my equipment are always willing to talk
as much as time allows and they are always happy to get  help with checking
arrows.
