[Ansteorra-archery] The naming of Arcus Majoris students...

[Talmon Parker]

  Thou this is probably in bad taste, and I'm not qualifed to say anything 
...   How about just plain feather, or feathers? They are definately a part 
of archery.they Work well and you cain't do much without them. So much for 
my small brain power....
