Default How do you measure bow poundage?

I'm wondering what everyone uses to measure the draw wieght of their bow. Do you use a small hand held type scale or do you use the big scales that hang from a hook?

I have two large scales that "hang from a hook". I found the handscales to be somewhat unreliable as many times they can brush up against clothing, etc... as you are drawing them back.
