My personal opinion. That style of riser is made more for an elevated rest. It has a wide flat shelf and flat window instead of being radiused for better arrow clearance. It also has the burger hole for threading an adjustable elevated rest. You can build up a section of the rest to get good flight as well. I always get cleaner arrow flight from elevated rests. A threaded rest placed through the burger hole can also allow for fine tuning of arrow flight. No wrong way, too each their own. Enjoy the process.

Thank you. When my shoulder heals I’m gonna shoot and she how she tunes. I have a center rest flipper on order if it doesn’t tune out good. Thanks for watching and taking time to share your thoughts.

Brad, Hope & Pray for a Speedy Recovery! I've been Shooting & Hunting with Traditional Bows going into my 49th yr. Your question for shooting off the self or elevated rest , is a Trick Question ! LOL !! I've shot ILF riser bows both ways , as long as you are shooting the right spined arrows and nocking point , I see No Difference . It's All in the Individual ! Stay Safe & Healthy ! God Bless !

Fred Bear and many others used to add a toothpick or the smaller end of a chop stick under their calf hair to lessen arrow contact . It works pretty good on my long bow and I’m gonna use it on my recurves next. I’ll be praying for your speedy recovery ❤️🩹 God Bless 🙏😇❤️🇺🇸

Nice to have met you at twin oaks. I have a Samick discovery with a nap flipper rest and get great arrow flight. I’ve taken it off and it shots good, but not as good as the elevated rest. Hope your shoulder gets better soon.I’ve been shooting bows a long time and I’ve always get better arrow flight with an elevated rest. I also have a Bear Kodiak with feather rest, shoot wood aluminum and carbon off of it and get great arrow flight.

I actually just built a short mag bow ... I had 35 lb limbs laying around and so since I have been wanting a Bear Super Mag but don't want to spend $450 to buy one ... I made a riser. (I have a video on my channel if you want to see it) Anyway, I made the shelf dead center of the riser & consequently the bow instead of the handle like all my other bows ... And I have to tell ya ... It is my best shooting bow and I love it!!! The arrow sits dead center and I think it's the way to go!!! I don't know why bowyers don't do it, but hey, I'm glad I did! I will pray for you ... I know all about bad shoulders! Mine are destroyed from my pro wrestling days and a bad xar accident. I have had a 3rd degree break of my right AC joint and that's not fun yo live with. (Never had it fixed.) God bless ya and rest that shouler ... But a word of advice ... Keep some motion in it by moving it through some rehab shouler exercises. No weight just some hanging circular motions, maybe see a chiropractor or keniseologist to get the proper exercises.

If you cant the bow, off the shelf is better. As you pivot, the arrow makes wider arc above your knuckle with elevated rest. The greater this arc, the greater the change in point of impact. Many sight shooters use a level to make sure the bow is perfectly level. Shooting with bow vertical, elevated rest allows less arrow interference. I shoot both ways. Target-elevated good. Hunting or hunting practice or 3d shoots-off the shelf or knuckle.

I can’t give you feed back on your question cause I don’t know either. But I do hope you feel better and get back to it soon.
