I have a few times seemed to work ok, put the arrow in the same hole twice!!
There are many good moccasin tracks along the trail of a straight arrow: ( fox )

I saw someone doing this on the Tradgang DVD preview clip. It sure looked different but it imagine it can be done successfully as long as the grip works. Very interesting.

It be like shooting a self bow off of the hand. I know not all self bows are built without a shelf of some kind but a lot of them are and I think most used to be. Probably an arrow spined to shoot from a bow with some amount of center shot would be way stiff for shooting off of the hand and might fly somewhat unpredictable. I've shot my bud's left handed bow using my arrows and did OK. But, his bow was like 65# and my arrows were spined @ 50# so I had a better match for shooting off of my hand. Just my thinking.     :archer:

Yes, but I shot it Avatar style (inverted, two finger grip).  I even hit the target!   :D
