That means 1.5" diameter of the head as ify ou were looking across the
face or striking surface of the blunt.<br>
<br>
The 1" is the depth of the foam as measures from the face or striking
surface of the blunt down to the core of the blunt (either UHMW or
rubber stopper).<br>

<pre wrap="">Okay, I see a small problem with this announcement. Don't get me wrong, it's a good idea, but there's just a discrepancy here that I'd like cleared up.
In your statement, you say that all Uhmw and rubber stopper blunts must have a sleeve that extends the size out to 1.5 inches... and yet, in the first paragraph, you state that combat archey may not exceed 1 inch.
Ummm... a little clarification would be nice on this itme.
Thanks in advance,
Ume
See ya next time,

Greetings Fellow Combat Archers of Ansteorra,
As some are aware during this recent Pennsic War a
Society Wide Ruling
has been put out and it is effective immediately.
Obviously with our Fall
Melee season just around the corner this is going to place
some undue stress
in getting our ammunition up to speed rather quickly. I
know there are
questions and we are doing our best to get them resolved as
soon as
possible. Please bear with us as we work out how this is
going to effect
our rule set. I will post any additional changes as soon
as we work them
out. If you have any questions or concerns please feel
free to ask me.
Here is the official announcement from the Society Combat
Archery Marshal;
Effective immediately by the Society Earl Marshal & the
Deputy Society Earl
Marshal for Combat Archery, the following changes to
equipment are required
due to repeated incidents of helm penetrations:
* Combat Archery ammunition may have at most 1" thick
padding on the tip
after taping.
* All UHMW & Siloflex/Rubber Stopper ammunition must
have a side wrap of
foam added that brings the total diameter of the blunt to
at least 1.5"
after taping. This wrap must extend from the tip to at
least 1/2" over the
UHMW or Siloflex itself.
* All fletches on any arrows, bolts, or thrown weapons can
project no
further than 1/2" from the shaft, or must be 1.5"
thick.
* NOTE: All Marshals need to be rigorous in their
inspections of all tips
(arrows & thrusting) and mass weapons. Ensure that the
foam is firm, will
not bend over, returns to shape when compressed, and can
not be easily
pushed into a legal helm more than 1/2".
