RE: Is Short Good or Bad for Accuracy? (draw length)
While many may have a variety of opinions, knowing the answers to several questions and being able to see your form is the ONLY way to properly make recommendations.
Some of the questions would be:
What DL are you presently shooting? If you've been used to shooting a DL that is 2" too long, which is NOT uncommon, then you'd have to be brought down easily. A moduled cam is usuallythemost economicalfor this. It's VERY rare that someone is shooting a DL too short, but it does happen.
What DW are you presently comfortable with? Some of the older cams will loose/gain weight depending on which way you move the DL. In cases like this the new DL may seem more or less comfortable depending on which way you go. Knowledge about changing DW when DL is changed is sometimes overlooked, and the corresponding comfort is therefore compromised/compensated. Incorrect DW can affect accuracy as well as incorrect DL.
What do you plan on doing - target shooting or hunting? While many will disagree, there can be a big difference in how you're set up and the comfort/effectiveness you'll feel with each style.
I usually spend at least 15-30 minutes with each customer trying to understand where they've been and where they want to go with archery. Once they've made themselves clear to me, I can address their particular needs. The process of both changing or finding their proper DL for their particular needs can then take minutes, hours, days, or months. It all depends on where they are and where they want to go.
Now to the question. "Is Short Good or Bad for Accuracy? NOT! You'd have to answer my questions firstand show up at the shop for me to even make an attempt to answer that question.
Good luck and good shooting.
