Yep...I tried to explain that once...and some just didn't get it.  Left wing will loosen points more...and can loosen bheads at impact....and could jeopardize the adapter post if you hit hard bone or get a front leg moving rearward.

If ya shoot left....loc tite your bheads down.

You can shoot either without any real issue.  Some of those who shoot with the arrow very close to the hand find that the opposite wing (left wing/right hand shooter) gives better fletch clearance and doesn't cut our hand.  I'm a RH shooter and prefer left wing, but it's a pretty minor thing.
