Draw length

(1/2) > >>

John K:
When measuring draw length do you measure from the belly or back of the bow  ???

Thanks John

Papa Matt:
From the belly, John.

JackCrafty:
Hmmmm....I measure mine from the back.  I guess it depends on the type of arrows you shoot?  Mine are at least 2" longer than my draw, and I release the arrow when I feel the sinew wrap (at the tip) touch my bow hand.  I guess it also depends on whether you use an arrow rest or not?  Good question.

Pat B:
Generally draw length is measured to the back of the bow. Depending on the type of handle you are using measuring to the belly could be different. To the back is always the same.     Pat

John K:
Thanks guys, i thought it would be the back, but then i measure brace height from the belly, so i thought i would throw this question out there  :)
