A couple clarifications please.

> SHAFTS
>
> The total shaft length may not exceed 5 feet.

Just to make sure. That means the *shaft* and not the shaft and tip?

> There is no taping required along the length of the shaft.  In fact the material markings on the shaft must remain visible.

Is taping allowed if the markings remain visible? Do all of the markings
have to remain visible or just enough for identification purposes?

> THRUSTING TIPS
>
> Minimum thrusting tip standards are 2"inch diameter padding
> with progressive resistant give without contacting the rigid tip
> underneath. Heads must be securely fastened to the shaft with fiber
> strapping tape

Is there a *minimum* height of the thrusting tip?

> The thrusting face/tip are to be taped Red.

The whole tip or is just the face okay?
