My club in northeastern Mass also prohibits any human sillouette targets. I think it's ludicrous. Do they think if you shoot at a human-like target, that you'll be more prone to shoot at an actual person? The laws in Mass-hole really get to me sometimes.
I even asked our Board (of Directors) of we could have animal sillouette targets on the range. Their answer: No. What about is rifle-shooters who want to hone our skills for hunting (correct shot placement, etc.)? It's truly absurd. But it's OK for the archers to have their 2D (sillouette) and 3D targets. Is that hippocritical or what? (I think the next time I am on the archery range, I will pin up a picture of Obama to shoot at...I'd like to see what they would say about that.).
