Actually the default is " Palewise, point to base; when fesswise, point to sinister"
http://heraldry.sca.org/coagloss.html#default
So we have
Azure chapé ployé ermine, a sheaf of arrows and a stags head cabossed argent.
Sheaf is default so no other modifiers need apply. Also I do not believe that "in chief" is necessary on this instance either as 1) as i understand it a chapé ployé cannot be charged (it it is then it will be blazoned as a chevron throughout ployé. 2) can't have argent charges on an ermine field.
Cheers,
Alasdair, Sigillarius
