To get back on topic I have a question regarding your survey as it pertains to handle material. You have solid wood handles and you have composite wood and polymer handles. Where would you categorize a laminated wood handle with no polymers? I could understand allowing laminated handles while not allowing micarta and such. But a laminated handle would not actually be solid wood.
Ok I see this is going to get messy, the idea is to simplify the rules, things like polymer handles will be to complex to enforce, lead in the handle is easy to detect and obvious to most that it's added stabilisation. RD bows are already used by too many IFAA archers to ban. The limb tip rule, What was all that about! I can't see any advantage having tips 1/2 longer than someone else, all that one manage was to make English longbows with horn nocks illegal (was someone that worried)
Any new rules or amendments need to backed up with some data of evidence to justify our reasons for wanting to make the change. Robs on the right track by keeping it simple.

Steve,n
I think, but I'm not sure, that the limb tip rule is to eliminate static "limb tips" that are actually providing some amount of "recurve" functionality. I believe it is an attempt to circumvent the idea that the string should only touch the limbs at the "limb tips". Someone more conversant in the rules and what is going on out there to try and get around might comment further.

Limb tips - Steve's on the money, because ELB horn limb TIPS are added by drilling a hole in the horn tips and inserting the tapered limb ENDS into the the TIPS.
I've always see rather long, tapered, ELB limb tips because you need to shove in a goodly amount of limb tip end into the horn tip for best strength.
On flatbows, the limb tips are OVERLAYS that are ADDED to the limb TIPS and will flatten out that area (static, no discernable bending).

For both ELB's and flatbows, the actual tips don't bend and are static.

Perhaps, in the final analysis, it just doesn't matter - make the tips or overlays whatever length you like. Maybe all this stuff about the limb tip length is just nitpicking and we should just move on to items that really matter?
Comments, please?

Maybe the rule should read "no static limb tips allowed". Anykind of tip overlay within reason is fine with me.

Some will say that adding more weight to the tips adds more snap to the limb increasing performance. But the other school of thought is that added weight slows the limbs and reduces performance. Your pick!n
Personally I don't think it makes much difference, you still have to hold on and make the shot. IMHO sometimes speed only means you missed it faster. If you have a high performance bow and can't control it what good is it? :confused:
