   How proficient in wrestling do you allow your military dwarves to become before switching them to your desired weapon skill?

There isn't really a need to switch.

All my guards are forbidden to use weapons since they kill prisoners too easily with them... Thus they wrestle with the recruits very often and every damned meleedwarf becomes a legendary wrestler before being proficcient in their weapon of choice. It's a little hard to tell who's who buit apart from that it's a great system.
I also recruit weak and wounded dwarves into the guard just so they'll avoid sparring and won't be able to kill prisoners that efficiently.
