Welcome to All About Archery!
This website will be intended for the use of anyone who loves to fling arrows as much as I do, whether in the woods or at the range, and for anyone else who just loves to be outdoors. I hope to be able to provide you with a place to do some free advertising for your used items, a place to show off those beautiful shots (from the camera), a place to talk to others about their adventures, and a place to pick up any supplies you need before heading into the woods. I am certainly open to any suggestions you may have and I look forward to all the new friends I am sure to meet.
Thanks for stopping by.  test

    Measuring Your Draw Length

    Unlike a traditional recurve bow that can be drawn back to virtually any length, a compound bow will draw back only a specific distance before it stops (the wall).  Compound bows are designed to be shot from the full-draw position.  If a compound bow is set for a 29" draw length, it should always be shot from the full 29" draw position.  But the bow cannot be over-drawn, say to 30" or 31", without modifying the setup on the bow.  So the draw length on your compound bow must be set to match your particular size.  When we setup your bow, we will adjust the bow for your precise draw length.

    To measure your draw length, determine the length of your arm-span in inches.  Stand with your arms out and palms facing forward.  Don't stretch when measuring.  Just stand naturally.  Have someone else help you, and measure from the tip of one middle finger to the other.  Then simply divide that number by 2.5.  The quotient is your proper draw length (in inches) for your body size.


    The majority of compound bow owners set their bows for too much draw length, which results in poor shooting form - inaccuracy - and painful string slap on the forearm.  You will better enjoy - and be more successful with your new bow when it is fitted properly to your body.  And REMEMBER!  If in doubt, choose a little LESS draw length rather than a little more.  If you are still unsure, or plan to shoot with a string loop, feel free to shoot me an email with any questions. 

      
    If you are a person of average proportions, your arm-span will be roughly equal to your height (in inches).  So there is often a direct correlation between a person's height and their draw length as well.  Once you have computed your draw length using the method above, you can double-check yourself by using the scale below - to see if your number is within the expected range.
