When I was younger I was told I had a 29" draw. I had my bow set to that. A few days ago, I did the measure wingspan /2.5 and was at 28"... Changed the module on my bow since I had the correct one. Huge difference from where it was to now. Hopefully I shoot better now smile

It's better to have your bows draw length a little short than a little long ... I'm sure you'll see better groups !

Also the wingspan/2.5 is only an estimate. But I'm sure a lot of people are long on there bow draw length.

Yep... It did make the draw better though. Only shot a few arrows without playing with the sights much. Less head tilt getting in the peep

I used to shoot a draw length that was too short. It actually works nicely and feels good. The only down side for me was that it's harder to find a good and consistent anchor point reference.

Shoot a 30" but shot a 29.5 the other day and it felt good. Used the tip of my nose as my anchor with the string instead of my knuckle under my ear.

if you shoot with a string loop. you may want to shorten the draw length 1/2" more.


Anything worth doing, is worth doing right, or it's not worth doing at all!
