Default RE: fread bear

Trophy Hunter.......easy to check. Your draw length is measured to the front side of the riser (at full draw obviously).

To do this without assistance simply take a small clip that will slide when pushed or something like an index card with a hole poked in it and put that on your arrow near the tip.......now just draw naturally to your anchor and the front of your riser will push your marker to its position where you will measure.

Then measure the distance from the throat of your nock to the mark on your arrow. THAT's your draw length.

Of course with muscle development and changes to your shooting stance or form that number can flutuate pretty significantly......but at least it will give you an idea of what you are drawing that day using what you are doing currently.
