Just as an interesting discussion point, what if a lack of a dress code itself put people off competing? E.g. "I would go to competitions, but the shooting line is filled with chavs"I voted NO because I don't think it matters what the shooting line looks like as long as people are enjoying themselves If the dress regs in any way hinder, prevent or put off people from competing then I think they should be scrapped.
That's why you would have a relaxed dress code - polo shirts, no jeans/denim/camo. Golf seems to cope with a similar dress code without having anyone complain about it.Just as an interesting discussion point, what if a lack of a dress code itself put people off competing? E.g.

Speedo's, Tutu... Compulsory dress for Ironman!! There could possibly be something worse turning up at Gordano :jaw-droppIs there really a problem with people wearing different clothing to gain a competitive advantage? If so what exactly were they wearing as I bet it wasnt jeans and T-shirt.
I go along with no sandals and clothing being kept in good repair for safety reasons and I suppose that would apply to certain items of clothing being unsuitable but again, have you ever seen anyone turn up wearing speedos or a ballet tutu?I am proud to compete wearing my club colours but I hate the idea of anyone being sanctioned for wearing the wrong shade of green trouser as I think the olive drab bar was brought in for prejudicial reasons and harms the sport by pandering to those prejudices..
Yes, but I believe that the rule was more restrictive when this thread was started - over 4 years ago. In those days, bottle-green, white, or registered club colours was all that was allowed.Clarification:

Viagra? Just a part of the toolkit, surely?and we'll need the attitude to match .... but sex, drugs and archery? not a pleasant mental image (Mr Heelis, can I borrow your mind bleach) and do world archery/fita consider viagra a performance enhancing drug?
Perhaps it helps with head position: to quote an old joke, if you don't swallow it quickly enough you get a stiff neck.Viagra? Just a part of the toolkit, surely?
Just powder it and rub it onto any shafts which are tuning a little weak...
A lot less serious than it was 4 years ago, when this thread was topical and relevant.I have no idea how serious all this is .
