The North American Crossbow Federation has finalized its efforts to establish basic definitions, standards and testing procedures for the crossbow industry according to the procedure set forth by ANSI. The standards were approved July 31, 2018, by a unanimous vote.
 
These standards mark an important chapter in the crossbow industry. They will ensure that the sport of crossbow hunting and recreational use will be enjoyed for years to come.

NACF/ANSI Committee meeting

6/20/2018

0 Comments

 
The North American Crossbow Federation continues with their efforts to establish basic definitions, standards and testing procedures for the crossbow industry according to the procedure set forth by ANSI. The NACF now has in place the required ANSI mandated balance of consensus committee members. Five NACF manufacture members and ten consensus committee members make up the consensus committee. These proposed standards are listed with ANSI as NACF 001-2018.
 
This consensus committee held a meeting on May 24th that was adjourned before all the proposed definitions, standards and testing procedures were reviewed and edited. For that reason the NACF consensus committee will hold another meeting on July 9th at 1:00P.M.EST.  At that time the meeting of May 24th will be called back to order.
Questions or comments in regards to these proposed matters should be sent before the meeting and can be sent by using the “Contact Us” feature on the NACF web site. The NACF web site is:  www.northamericancrossbowfederation.com/.
