You can choose shooting off the traditional shelf or elevated. Or perhaps shoot two arrows at once and double your chances of hitting what your aiming at.

Jack, nice   :thumbsup:  Looks to be center shot and cutout may be for vane clearance. Sure looks like that would work out. Just a thought   :cool:  Hink

Id have to try a two arrow shot with that one.

That might just say a little something about my personality.    :knothead:

I do seem to remember a bow that was designed to be shot with two arrows.  My memory is saying it was marketed by Art LaHa.  But don't bet any money based on my memory!  :knothead:

Thanks Whip. I thought I might have something unique but looks like there are more around.

Still a pretty neat find Jack.

Are you going to try it or just admire it?
Relax,

Charlie,

 I imagine I'm going to need to nock a couple arrows on the string at some point and see if it improves my shooting any.
