It says BLBS rules though, does this mean there is a 70lb draw weight limit ?
Alan, I will check on that (if I remember right you are a GNAS member from shooting with BRAC so have insurance cover?). We state BLBS rules because (bear in mind there's a lot of club history here and this is my interpretation...) it is a two way and the prizes go to hits, then score, then golds. (So you can see whether this might affect you, last year the numbers were 65, 310, 7.) I think the answer is that you will be welcome to shoot, but if anyone objects to you winning with a warbow draw weight we would have to set your score to one side under BLBS rules. The same would apply to other equipment rules, eg on use of feather fletchings only.

Hope that helps!
