Draw lenght ?

[southernhunter]

As u see in my other post , I just bought a mathews reezen , it's got a 29 inch cam , I was expecting to have to buy a 30 inch cam but after drawing the bow back with the d loop , I Am thinking I might can just keep the 29 inch cam . Since the d-loop adds a fake 1/2 inch to the draw lenght , what y'all think ?

More than likely you will be just fine�alot of people have a tendency to draw longer than they should anyway. If it feels good, and your comfortable....shoot it! One thing I would recommend is get a focus grip for that thing and dump the walnut factory grip.

Add that on top of Mathews used to be notorious for running a half inch+ long on draw length anyway, and your 29" cam is probably actually measuring 29.5 or more when at full draw.

Is there a way to measure what the bow is drawing ?

It will take two people�you and another. The safest is to have someone mark on the arrow at the point where a verticle line would be if that line was even with the deepest point of the grip/front of the berger hole when your at full draw, and then measure from the throat of the nock to the point on the arrow. Draw length is measured from the nocking point to the deepest part of the grip, or on a Mathews the front of the berger hole.
