Widder, SASS #59054 Posted May 31, 2018 Share Posted May 31, 2018 I know its against SASS rules to wear clothing that advertises for businesses/sponsors, etc... BUT, how about 'medical' items such as wrist bands to support a wrist? If someone with a previous broken wrist needs to wear a wrist ban that has "PTEX" on it for some added wrist support, would this be considered against the rules? How about a NIKE wrist ban (sweat ban) that might help give some support? With the NIKE, I think it can be turned inside out to hide the logo. Are these items forbidden when the company name or logo is showing? thanks, ..........Widder Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doc Shapiro Posted May 31, 2018 Share Posted May 31, 2018 I don't think it's the right call for a brace. It would just be wrong to call a penalty on someone wearing an elbow brace for tendonitis with "Mueller" printed on it. I also don't see the logo on a sweatband as an issue. Remember, "don't be a hardass". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shooting Bull Posted May 31, 2018 Share Posted May 31, 2018 Trying to use common sense and logic (Two things I'm not very good at using) I'd say it's a no call. If we started calling manufacture's labels on things like that we'd have to call them on everything. No logos on your pants, no logos on your boots, no logos on your GUNS.

J-BAR #18287 Posted May 31, 2018 Share Posted May 31, 2018 Use the Justice Potter Stewart approach to determine whether or not it’s advertising: it may be hard to define but I know it when I see it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warden Callaway Posted May 31, 2018 Share Posted May 31, 2018 What about the SASS badges? TO pins? Award belt buckles? And so on and so forth? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goody, SASS #26190 Posted May 31, 2018 Share Posted May 31, 2018 From page 4 of the shooters handbook. "The displaying of any manufacturer’s, sponsor’s, or team logos on apparel. (Manufacturer’s labels on such apparel or equipment are acceptable)" Seems clear enough to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buckaroo Bubba Posted May 31, 2018 Share Posted May 31, 2018 Logo: distinctive graphic design, stylized name, unique symbol, or other device for identifying an organization This includes those of SASS, individual clubs/ranges, match commemorative and those of any subgroups within the Cowboy Action Shooting community Exceptions: Badges, pins, belt buckles, scarf slides, military unit/rank insignia of a standard size. Dooley Gang or Like Sleeve Garters with the Embroidered Group Names?? Not saying I have a problem with those, just bringing up an example of an item that could be questioned.

Flying W Ramrod Posted June 1, 2018 Share Posted June 1, 2018 Also thinking, wrist support, and the like, are not items of apparel and, as such, exempted from the Logo rule. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joke 'um Posted June 1, 2018 Share Posted June 1, 2018 Seems to be a concern about what the "other guy" is doing. I need to endeavor to follow the rules myself, unless I simply can't (medical, etc). Unless the "other guy" is gaining a competitive advantage, mind your own business. Keep your own ducks in a row. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
