Default Measuring draw length

Im trying to find the "wing span" method of measuring for draw length and recall see a link here on how to do it. I fellow who is interested in starting to shoot has been given about three different methods. I want to give him the chance to at least read about this method. Anyone have the info or a link?

I've heard take the wing span and divide by 2. And I have heard divide by 2.5.


For me, 2.5 is right dead nuts on the money.
