She can get a close measurement while you are at full draw if she is pretty handy with a tape. Measure anchored string to throat of grip and add 1.75"

According to the wife it was 25 5/8 from the grip *see pic* to the string. I do use a D loop which is 5/8 from the string.
So it comes out to 26 1/4.[:@] I am going to the shop today to nip this.

Did Kevin call you? I think it's time to get a Katera and give the bow to your son

I want it right, thats the computer nerd in me.

Forgot the 1.75 so it comes out to 27 on the dot.

Tony what DL did they measure you at?The loop will only give you a further back anchor point it will not change your DL.Seeing that you are taller than me I would say you probably need to be 29-30".I am still checking on the mods for you but I know he will need to know what DL you actually need.
