what is your draw length, weight, an how fast does your bow shoot? an people measure both ways i tthink the most common way isfrom the end of the knock to the end of the insert thats how i do it;)

The proper method is to measure from the groove of the nock to the end of the insert. I like to snap mine onto a string and then measure from the string to the end of the arrow without a tip on it.

This is the way I have always read it to be measured as well.
