If you would like to continue shooting your bow upside down, I can make you a nice upside down, custom grip to make it more comfortable for you

Talking

Hrrrrrrrrrrrrm a Fonz or not, aye very difficult to shoot a bow upside down, if your all in doubt go try it, you may find your feet with lots of arrows in them.

Not a Fonz, but perhaps a Darwin Award nomination.

We have all done some dumb thing in our time, but not all admit it.

I think I would have kept this one quiet.

Pray tell how you manage to shoot a bow "upside down" for even one shot
Do you mean you had your top limb on the bottom & vice versa? or do you really mean it was upside down? and if so, what magic force did you use to hold the arrow on the rest?
