[Ansteorra-archery] Un-allowed blunts

[B Scott Mills]

I am not sure that showing blunts that are NOT allowed is the right 
approach as there are lots of things that are not allowed. Red heads, 
Morak Blunts, Thistle Missles, Eggs, etc.  Training on everything that 
is not allowed might run the risk of confusing things.

I think the best approach is to train new marshals to accurately 
identify the limited set of blunts that ARE allowed and for then to be 
very sure of what they need to look for as a legal blunt.  Anything else 
is not allowed.

The only caveat there is that you should train people how to tell the 
difference in one piece and two piece classic baldar blunts and make 
sure that they understand that they need to check carefully for that 
100% of the time.  Also they need to understand that any white based 
baldar blunt is not allowed on fiberglass as those were for wooden 
shafts only.

Regards,
