If there was a thread for just asking trad bow questions I'd have put this there but since there isn't one here's my question. First, a co-worker told me this this morning and I'm asking you veteran bowyer and trad guys or gals for your opinion. He just had a long bow custom made for him recently and said the guy who made it for him built him some arrahs too. Said he went with 5" feathers but only is gluing 2 on them. Opposite of each other with a slight right helical.
Question: Have you ever hunted or shot your long bow with your arrows set up this way. He will be basically shooting off his left hand as you know most long bow shelves are nonexistent?
Also what broadhead do you recommend for him? He didn't tell me his poundage or draw length but I'm figuring it will be 45-50# at 26-27" according to his size.
He said the bow looks great and will bring it to work sometime. If so, I'll snap a pic or two then post it here.
