I believe this issue could be quite easily resolved if a club, who is under instructions that all lost arrows must be found, invests in a better metal detector. If metal detectors can find old pennies buried 3-4” inches deep in the ground they can certainly find a brass or steel arrow point somewhere near the surface. If, however, a club is still told they can’t use all carbon arrows, or the club themselves decides they don’t want people to shoot all carbon arrows, then their ground should be classed unsuitable for record status tournaments. After all, if you don’t have a long enough overshoot you don’t just say ‘30lb maximum draw weight’ and be expected to get away with it.
Well said Ben. I happen to think that, of all you wrote, the above paragraph puts the whole issue into the greatest perpective.

Good luck in your campaign with GNAS. You'll need it.
