I realise this is probably opening a can of worms (and apologies for posting it here instead of the "Bowstyles" part of the forum), but... :stirthepo
...for the purposes of target archery (NOT Field!), and specifically in the context of the British Barebow (Indoor) Championships, would a Flatbow be considered to be a barebow? And if not, why not? :boggled:
I've read the GNAS/AGB RoS and Rules 202 & 204 seem to suggest that a Flatbow is a barebow. In addition, the page on the Scottish Archery website (here) states in more than one place that a flatbow is considered a Recurve Barebow for the purposes of target archery.
