Hi,
Im new-ish to barebow and planning to enter a couple of competitions right at the death of the outdoor season.
On reading the rules of shooting i see that it states that "The serving on the string must not end within the archer's vision at full draw" but i have seen a lot of photographs/videos of archers shooting internationally who must be able to see the end of their serving
Eg. http://www.fieldarcher.org/gallery/albums/EC2013_Mugshots/Sebastian_Juanola_Codina.jpg

(sorry, i dont know how to make the images small enough to insert them!)
I can just see the top of the serving, if i look for it, in my highest string walking position - i suspect it looks similar to the above. Im currently using the same string i used to use for recurve. Is this something that is strictly enforced? Do you serve your strings longer to avoid this problem?
Thanks,
Fliss
