Draw length
Determining your "Draw Length" is very important for proper shooting.
The length must fit your arm length. There are two methods explained here
to determine your draw length.
1. Make a fist with your bow hand and touch a wall, holding it out as if
your are shooting your bow. Then have someone or measure from the wall
to the corner of your mouth with a tape measure. The length you come up
should be close to your actual draw length.
2. The next method which figures out to be pretty accurate is to measure
your wingspan. Hold your arms straight out and measure from finger tip
to finger tip. Round off to the nearest inch... Got to the chart below
and find your length.
