Height and draw length
 

Just wondering what everbodies height and draw length was? Mine is 28.5 inches and Im 5 ft 10. Just thought it might be an interesting post, never seen it on here befor.

RE: Height and draw length
 

I am an old ball, only 5'9 1/2" (but who's counting?)but I have a 6'1" wingspan. (Big whoop, huh! :D)

So that translates into me having 29 inchesof draw length.

RE: Height and draw length
 

I'm 6'6" tall, 82" wingspan, compound draw length 33 1/2".

RE: Height and draw length
 

6' 0" tall... Using the wingspan method, my span is 75". Divide that by 2.5 and it is 30". But yet when I draw a bow, I measure 29". Go figure.... :eek:

6'5" 31" lefty draw :D

RE: Height and draw length
 

Exactly right....5'10" and a 28.5" draw.

I've shot a 29 inch draw over the last 10 years knowing I was slightly overdrawn. I did it for the speed and knowing it's better to shoot a bow slightly short than it is long, I shot it fantasticly. However as we shrink with age.....I shot my Vortec at 28.75" because of letoff adjustments I finally ordered my new Allegiance in a 28.5" draw and it feels exactly...

6'1" height, 76" wing span, shoot a 29" draw.

RE: Height and draw length
 

5,9" shoot a 28" draw.

RE: Height and draw length
 

5.9" shoot a 28" draw

RE: Height and draw length
 

1/4" shy of being an even 6 footer. For years I was overdrawing with success at 30". A few years ago I cut it down to 29.5" and right now its better than ever at 29.25" on my Patriot.

6'5" 30.5" draw

RE: Height and draw length
 

6'7" 81" wingspan and 32" draw

RE: Height and draw length
 

5'9, 73 & change wingspan, but shoot 29 with a loop comfortably. (it would be 28.5 with a newer Mathews)

RE: Height and draw length
 

I don't know my wingspan, but the guy that coaches me a bit has me adjusted to 29 3/8 including the loop. I am 6.0 even and have really long monkey arms. Using the method that GRIV from Copper John uses, I should be 29.5 but 29 3/8" gives me a little less range of movement in my float without becoming jerky.

RE: Height and draw length
 

6'2" 30 1/2 inches on compound
29 on longbow/recurve

RE: Height and draw length
 

5'8" and 28 inch's or 27 7/8 to be DEAD on The 1/8 inch is noticable , one reason I love my darton marvic so much , fine adjustability .

RE: Height and draw length
 

As you can see, there is some but not absolute relationships between draw length and height. I've had some customers who really broke the mold. 5'7" with a 30" DL, 6'7" with a 28" DL, and 6'1" with a 34" DL are just a few that come to mind.

Your best bet as a start is still the Wingspan method.;)

6'2" X 29"

RE: Height and draw length
 

6'4" - 31 inches

RE: Height and draw length
 

You guys are all a bunch of "bigfoots". I'm a little guy, 5' 3". I've been shooting a 27.5" draw length, however, just ordered a new Switchback XT today with a 26" draw length.

RE: Height and draw length
 

6'4" 31 3/4 - 32in draw (depending on the bow)

RE: Height and draw length
 

5'10" 29DL

RE: Height and draw length
 

6'10" 34" draw....pretty tough to find equipment especially bows and arrows! Then camo becomes a harder hunt to find than deer!

RE: Height and draw length
 

Do what I do for camo... Paint yourself brown, put on a fuzzy green wig and act like a tree. [8D]

RE: Height and draw length
 

I guess somebody is planning on taking all these statistics and making a chart?

6.5 31 inch draw length plus “D” loop.

RE: Height and draw length
 

Damn I 'm short......5'6" 27 inch draw.

RE: Height and draw length

:D:D:D ... the mental image was more than I could take. :)

RE: Height and draw length
 

5'1'' and 26.5'' draw length, gotta remeber i am only 15:)

RE: Height and draw length
 

Yoopermike,where do you get your camo,and what kind do you use?Also what size shoe or boot do you wear and where do you get them?I wear a fifteen/sixteen boot and have a hard time finding them I would imagine you probably wear around an eighteeen or so right?

RE: Height and draw length
 

Wow, I might have the shortest DL here at 26". I'm about 5'11''.

RE: Height and draw length
 

5'11"with a28.5" DL (with a loop). I used to be 6' and although my arms are still the same length, I've shortened my drawlength an inch and find it easier to control.
