BigJ, when we get them at the shop I will measure the 31" model and let you know how long it really is.Our first order willhave a 29.5" - 70lber for me to test drive . If I really like it I might get rid of the Dren I'm hunting with now and get this since it's a bit longer, I do shoot longer ATA bows better. This bow would be a big step up for you in speed from your current SB LD, at your draw length it would be smoking.......
