Hi Paul,
I don't seee much difference between the underhand low and the underhand high representations. The spear seems to be held evenly high when compared to the body of the owner.
The only difference seems to be that the underhand/low guy holds his spear much further back on the shaft. This looks impractical, or must we assume the shaft is much longer and he grips it in the middle?
