Surely under gnas rules there already IS a time limit for shooting 3 or 6 arrows (2 1/2 mins for 3 arrows according to my green book)?

Is this not being applied, or is it not the time to shoot arrows that is the problem. I certainly have been on target with someone taking 4 or 5 minutes to shoot 3 arrows and (despite complaints by me to the judge) continued to do so on the grounds that he sufferred "target panic"

Perhaps there should be a maximum time for collecting and scoring?
We cant base this on how fast a judge walks as more of them are zipping round the field at high speed on these battery powered scooters
Efficient field parties make a lot of difference (thanks to the guys at lincoln/emas dfs)

Watchman: (With my T/O hat on for that event) the ladies were much quicker and far more efficient/accurate in filling in score cards and running slips too. Perhaps its cause there were more men, therefore the statistical probability of a man being slower is higher. Mrs GA says men are just slower anyway. I say the ladies should be grateful for anything that lasts more than 3 minutes
