ANSTHRLD - Opinions Please

I would like to see a hunting horn as part of the design, that has always
seemed more like the symbol of a huntsman to me.   I dont think the ring of
pheons will work because of identifiablity.   And personally I think the two
long skinny things in saltire is over used. 

how can we get an arrow or pheon, a hunter horn and an Ansteorran star in a
nice design?   Doesn't have to be fieldless.

Hmm interesting, however in the case of the "mullet of five pheons" the
overlap area ends up as small and obsuring only a part of each pheon.
for better visual go to
http://home.earthlink.net/~dmmerlick/huntsman.html These wern't done at
he time of the original posting. (BTW these are the potential design
ideas for the Royal Huntsman badge)
