Default RE: Just looking to start out bow hunting...

ORIGINAL: varcos

Hey all,

I have just been thinking of giving bow hunting a shot for a while. I have been looking on the internet for a few online stores as to if they could possibly give me an idea as to what size bow i would need. Is there anyone that would be able to help me?

If it helps, I am 6'3" and sittin around 200lbs. So i am assuming that i would need a bow with a bigger then average.... draw length? I think thats what the gentleman called it.

Let me know if anyone on this forum is around the same size as I and could give me some tips to find out a bow that is best suited to me. Thanks!
RUN!!! just kidding.

I'm 6.5 210 pounds and have a 31 inch draw length. String touchesvery tip of my nose with my bow arm bent. If your body is proportioned, my guess is you will be very close to a 30 inch draw length. Some good advice has already been given, enjoyyour new hobby!
