Re: Using Full Guantlets with sword & shield
Yes. Someday when I can find a pair that allow me to use a sword well given the tendon damage in both arms that kill my grip in certain ways.

Re: Using Full Guantlets with sword & shield
Look here: http://www.youtube.com/user/aeschine You can see me using one behind my shield here. I find it took some getting used to and having a tight strap on my hand was a necessity but I'm really starting to like it. You can see me fighting with it here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gojSBD_euKc

Re: Guantlet ouchy
Ward Gauntlets fit some folks but not all. I had some that mostly fit, but due to my odd hand shape they didn't fit me. I sold them and got some used ones that mostly fit another guy but fit me fine. Perhaps the best solution is to get Gauntlets that fit 'you' better? Have you looked at Bokalo's Arm...

I cannot tell another (the OP) what it would take for them to make it to the top in absolute specifics. I can speak in generalities and that one is that it will take cash and a lot of it.

For the West-
Count Sir Cybi de Elmhurst was in his late 40's when he was King.
Viscount Sir Daniel de Blare was 42 when he became Prince.
Viscount Sir Ursus of Rydborg was also in his 40's when he reigned.
They give me hope.

Re: What does it take to compete at the top levels of SCA He
Note: To be at the top level in the West means to compete in the Crown and Coronet. When you sign up and intend to do your best, and you are assuming that your best is now relatively significant, it means you must be prepared to serve as King/Queen or Prince/Princess if you win.
