I am taking this to mean that we can now place a no residue, removable tape on the floor? .... say instead of the the measuring sticks that us RO's are always tripping, stepping on.It is not permitted to place non-removeable tape or draw lines
with a permanent marker on the floor.
Not in the uk they don't, that practice has always been illegal under both ISSF and our national rules.David M wrote:A lot of pistol shooters who cannot easily reproduce their stance use chalk foot marks on the floor.
6.3.6.3.5 It is prohibited to put any substance on the floor of the Firing Point. It is prohibited to wipe the firing point
without permission.
This rule is new.
The intent is to stop shooters (or coaches) adding non-slip substances on the floor of the
firing point – no doubt some Juries will overextend their interpretation to include any
substance (e.g. a mark to indicate the shooter‟s preferred position of the feet).
If any shooter finds the firing point floor surfaces too slippery, this should be brought to the
attention of the Technical Delegate and the organisers and dealt with through official
channels.
