All I needed to hear was Will & Eadric saying they're gonna hurt 
and I contacted Linda to order some...heh...heh...heh! (Yeah the 
evil grin goes here!)  
 
When did your gear get stolen?

Now that I have to replace all my stolen CA gear, I'm planning on going with the fatheads on my new equipment.  Given that it's UHMW and Santoprene, they should last a long time with less maintenance.  I'm also hoping that the firmer impact will be easier for fighters in combat to notice.  I may make some standard UHMW bolts for the rapier field, but that's it.

It would be worth pursuing if you have the time, some of the archers 
I've talked to (including two of our own) have said they were not 
taking the field again until they could replace the "cozy" heads 
with baldars or something equivalent.  
 
I have to admit I'm not fond of using the "cozy's" anymore myself.  
Experienced some unusual problems with them at BAM after being 
soaked in standing water from the rain.  Been trying to dry them 
out ever since and suspect they will all have to be repaired.  
 
First I'd heard of them being ready but took a look at the "Fat 
Head's" on Northstar's site and they look like they won't take 
any water.  Going to have to order some and cut one open to 
see how they are made.  If we can get them approved I'll order 
fifty and let ya know how well they survive.

I have recommended that we approve them to our Earl Marshal. The core of the blunt is a legal UHMW blunt. And the rubber surrounding it is the same as with all Baldar Blunts.
Unless our Earl Marshal specifically denies their use, I see them as legal for use in Ansteorra. Having said that, I don't know that all the Gulf War kingdoms have approved them or their use at Gulf War.

Have the new fathead blunts from Northstar been approved in Ansteorra yet?
I know they are approved in several kingdoms.
Anyone know?
