Thanks for the help guys, I appreciate it. Unfortunately, around Chicago there are very few archery shops. We only have the big box outdoor stores which are OK to buy from but to get something that requires precise measurements I'd rather go somewhere that has people that has a little more experience. I'm heading down to central Illinois next week so I may have to head somewhere down there to get everything done.

Mike, thanks, I thought I was a tall one, I can't imagine how you feel sitting in a stand! Do the Mathews bows not fit you too well? I've been told a lot of good things about them but didn't know if they will work for taller guys. Thanks for the help and let me know if there is a particular brand that you like. I'm strictly using it for hunting so I'm not looking for anything too crazy.
