Need help with wording
« on: February 08, 2015, 03:11:41 pm »
  I am writing up for the flight blog a preliminary draft of the rules. I need words to describe classes and divisions.

   regular flight/ tradtional flight=  divisions?
  weigth classes=class"
  type of class- self, composite, complex composite= class?
 style of bow class= class"

  I would like to use the words division and class to apply to only one area so I need 2 more names for two other classifications or someway to identify it.

level
grade
... alone in distant woods or fields, in unpretending sproutlands or pastures tracked by rabbits, even in a bleak and, to most, cheerless day .... .  I suppose that this value, in my case, is equivalent to what others get by churchgoing & prayer.  Hank Thoreau, 1857

Division. Flight / Trad
Weigth class  35, 50 etc
Style, AFB, ELB etc
Del
BTW. Do we need to be an 'open' style, such that a weird and wonderful wooden bow that doesn't fit into any other category can be lumped in?

     Del, in regular flight the complex composite will have extended overdraws. Regular flite bows are not described beyond self, composite or complex. No real limits on style.

    Traditional is more defined into styles.

The world archery organization has it broken down as follows:

Class: Used to distinguish male/female, youth, seniors
Division: Used to distinguish the equipment category, such as longbows, compounds, recurves, etc.
Event type: Is the combination of Class and Division. For example, Youth 50# Primitive Self Bow.

  Allen, how would you distinguish between regular flight and tradtional or whatever we end up calling it.
