What is your height and your draw length?
 
For the most part the height of a shooter determines draw length. I realize that wingspan is probably more accurate, but most people's wingspan is very close to their height.

It has been my contention that MOST shooters shoot a draw that is atleast 1 inch too long. I shot a draw length for years that was way too long for me, mainly b/c thats what most guys my size shot.

I am 5 11 1/2 and I shoot 27 1/2 draw.

How about all of you. Lets see your stats.

I am 6'2" and depending on a variety of things including type of release, type of grip, shooting off the string or loop, measurement of different bows etc, I vary between 31 inches and 33 inches. Currently, I am at 31 inches on my Parker and feel very good about it. Have not gotten the Darton yet, but I orderered it with a module that I can adjust between 31 7/8 and 30 1/2.

But I should mention that I have very long arms and take a 38" sleeve length on my shirts.

I stand 6'1" and have shot a 30 inch draw for years. When setting up my new bow the pro quickly pointed out my bow arm was locked. I never realized this was a problem as I always shot well. We set up the new bow at 29" to give that arm some bend and now I'm shooting better than ever.

So 29" it is. It's nice to have some with a clue about bows helping you get set up. I'd post a pick of my form but am scared at what will come from you all.

I'm 78" tall and have a 33 1/2" draw length. My wingspan is 82" though.

6'4" - 31 inch draw though I am shooting 30.25 right now because my current bow choices are not offered in my correct draw length.
