Is this allowed for field?

With this equipment level, would it be considered as barebow? because I understand there are all sorts of rules as to what is and isn't allowed.
And to make things even more confusing... If you shot your current rig with wood arrows w feathers in a GNAS field shoot you would be in the "recurve traditional" bowstyle and mediteranean loose only. Shoot carbons or allys with your Border and they will move you to barebow Sorry I appreciate you are talking about the NFAS though...
