Just to add. When you order a custom bow you are getting a bow whoselimbs are designed to be optimum at your draw length. If you go much past the draw length, the bow is going to start to stack on you. That is, is will start to load heavier past a certain point. It maybe loading up at 2 1/2 pounds per inch up to your draw, but after the stated draw it maybe loading at 4-5 pounds per inch. At some point it will feel like a wall and your limbs will be loaded past what they were intended for.

You can shoot a bow a little below and above your draw lenght, but when getting a custom, it is made just to your specifications. That's why most of us said to perhaps start with something other then a custom. But if $$$ does not play a part, then that could be irrelevant. The little shortcuts should get you close to your draw, but never exact.

Don't get me wrong, I have Bob Lee limbs that are cutom made at 61#'s at 27",that I shoot at 29". But, I never would have ordered those limbs new as customs from the Lee shop. I would have gottem them at 29".
