And this is why rules - any rules - should be well thought out, properly drafted, and thoroughly checked with various groups before being let loose on the public. We all want simply to get on and enjoy our archery. So rules should be invisible, not getting in the way, sensible and universally accepted - and not open to interpretation. The only time a rule should be open to interpretation is if an entirely new piece of equipment comes along, and a decision has to be made if it complies with the rules. And this is why both rule-makers and pedants are absolutely necessary. And why threads like this are not from people out to spoil your fun, but rather to ensure it can go ahead without pettifogging jobsworths getting in the way.That's exactly how we got to where we are today - stupid jobsworth Judges who couldn't decide when green was green!
Not silly at all - I wondered exactly the same thing!I know that this might seem like a silly question... but considering that jeans (if they're black, white, green, purple, orange, red) are allowed... why is blue specifically banned??
Ah, you young thing! Remember that, back in the 50s and 60s (the era in which parts of GNAS have been fossilised) blue denim jeans were worn as a sign of rebellion, and we don't want that, do we! Think Marlon Brando (No, not as K-Tel or whoever, but in "On the Waterfront"). Think James Dean. That's right, scary people who have probably never had a cucumber sandwich in their lives.I know that this might seem like a silly question... but considering that jeans (if they're black, white, green, purple, orange, red) are allowed... why is blue specifically banned??
Its specifically there to stop Dave Cousins turning up and winning everything as he always shoots in blue jeans.I know that this might seem like a silly question... but considering that jeans (if they're black, white, green, purple, orange, red) are allowed... why is blue specifically banned??

Yep...long foppish sleeves a la Laurence Llewelyn Bowen for example. Now they should be banned...as should he.as long as safety and conduct are adhered to (so safety would cover such things as enclosed footwear, drawstrings on hoods etc).
