that the side wrap foam padding must extend from the tip to a minimum

UHMW or the shaft edge? <br>

<div id="yiv1288766835">Greetings,<br>
<br>
<br>
As of this afternoon we have decided the path that Ansteorra will
take with the new Society Rules concerning ammunition construction.
Effective immediately all UHMW cored blunts will require a minimum of
1/2" padding and a maximum of 1" of padding. Once again here is the
announcement from the Society Combat Archery Marshal;<br>
<br>
<b>Effective immediately</b> 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:
<ul>
<li>Combat Archery ammunition may have at most 1" thick
padding on the tip after taping.</li>
<li><span style="font-weight: bold;">All UHMW</span> &
Siloflex/Rubber Stopper ammunition <span style="font-weight: bold;">must
have a side wrap of foam added</span> 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.</li>
<li>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.</li>
<li>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".</li>
</ul>

A big concern is that Gulf War requirements currently for CA is 3/4"
of padding. If you plan on attending Gulf War, or even sending some
arrows/bolts to Gulf Wars I would make sure that your ammunition passes
that standard. They will be legal here and will be legal there. If
Gulf War standards change I will send out a notification to the
appropriate lists. Thank you all for your patience in letting us see
this through.<br>
