[Ansteorra-archery] Coronation or AoB

[H.L. Agnarr Thorvaldsson]

Quick question here on the Archer tassels.

I had thought that one of the ideas for the tassels was for getting more recognition for the archers in this Kingdom for thier skill.  Am I right on this or am I mistaken?

My personal thoughts on the tassels are that if they are handed out at a future AoB; most of the Kingdom will not 'know" what the tassels stand for and will most likely not even bother to ask what or why they are hanging off of our belts/quivers/ect.  as most will in the kingdom will just assume them to be a household favor or some-such item that most SCA'ers carry on them.

But if the tassels are handed out to the recipients at January's Coronation then the Kingdom will see them handed out and be taught what the tassels stand for.  And just maybe, we will end up in the long run having more individuals known and recognized for their Archery skills because others will then know what the tassels represent.

That all said I am for they being done at Coronation with any undelivered tassels being handed out at this years AoB or another future event.

But Hey. This is just my personal thoughts on the matter of the tassels since I will not be receiving one this year as my away score was not submitted in time this year (grrrrrr).

Oh well I will just shoot straighter this next year and verify that the scores are submitted.


Have a safe New Year everyone.
