I have a Owl self bow and use it all the time. I don't have a flatbow so I don't know about that. I would think you would be fine.

Selway is what I use on my Check Mate Thunderbird.  Closest thing I have to a Flatbow.  Years of use with no problem.

No problem Tim, use them all the time.
In the beginner's mind there are many possibilities. In the expert's there are few...So the most difficult thing is always to keep your beginner's mind...This is also the real secret of the arts: always be a beginner.  Shunryu Suzuki
