Chaos Wars had a policy of failing all feather fletchings this year due to safety hazards (possible eye risk from feather fletchings vs. synthetics). Though they said this was was true previous years, but I can attest that it was not always so, nor is it specified in the BOW. Here are my thoughts:
1) What areas have this policy?
2) Is there a valid safety concern?
3) If this is actually a widespread policy then it needs to be explicit in the BOW. We aren't living in the days when all precedents can just be unwritten. At some point it is a safety concern that all people aren't on the same page. After I get more info here, I can place a separate post for BOW changes or whatnot if necessary.
Thanks all!
