And this brings up another question. When you guys quot draw length, are you quoting AMO draw (True draw+1.75"), or from you nocking point to the back of your riser.
[/blockquote]I just checked mine Big C and I measured it from the back of the riser to my anchor point. It was 28.5 instead of 29 like I always thought it was. How do you go about measuring it the (True Draw way)?
[/blockquote]


For AMO draw, you just take your 28.5" + 1.75" to be 30.25" draw. Thats what most mfg. list on thier bows for a certain poundage.
Actually, true draw is measured at the deepest part of the grip, which usually correlates to the pivot point on the shelf. From that measurement, you add 1.75" for AMO. Measuring from the back of theriser will put you closer to AMO draw length, butnot exactly because riser sizestypically vary from bow to bow.
