On most recurves the string will fit nicely with little tension.

I would not trust doing this on a longbow.

And never on a wood bow.

Are you sure you're not looking at a reverse handled bow like a JD Berry Morning Star? I can't imagine even being able to string a longbow backwards with actual tension on it the way the string nocks are cut...

Look at where the grip laces are in relation to the string.
