I don't think there is anything wrong with that.  That is the way 
honor shields usually are used.  Of course, the primary place honor 
shields are used is Crown Tourney, and you are expected to "play the 
game right" if you are competing there, which means you really ought 
to have a name and device passed.

My main problem with white banners is that there are likely to be so 
many of them.  If it were just a few, no problem.  But if it is more 
like 2/3 of everyone there, then people are likely to ask what the 
point is.

This might be a good time to display those archery tassels too, 
hanging from your banner or banner pole somewhere.
