Default Finding Draw Lenght?

To all the people who have had a somewhat professional education on bows may find this question a little simple. I'm a self taught bowhunter and just recently it was brought to my attention that I was shooting a bow that's draw length was way to long. Okay so I learned how to shoot that particular bow wrong or right I could shoot it.

My question is how to find your correct draw length? Drawing a measured out arrow on the bow won't help me because my anchor point has been developed to draw a longer draw length. I would need a system to find out without drawing the bow.

I have tried the yard stick in the center of the chest. I'm currently drawing at 30" length but with this method its saying 26" I'm thinking that's not possible. I could see 29" or 28" but the other is too short. I've tried that on my bow and its not comfortable at all.

Thanks for the advice.
