bow length
« on: May 23, 2007, 01:40:00 PM »
I am having a brain fart so help me out!  How is bow length measured? braced or unbraced?

Had a guy ask me the length of my Dryad and it wasn't written on the bow so all I could do was say "don't know". Not the best answer.  A man should know the specs on his equipment.

Unbraced, along the contour of the back from nock to nock.

AMO length is the length of the string it takes to brace the bow correctly plus 3".
Gen 27:3  "Now therefore take, I pray thee, thy weapons, thy quiver and thy bow, and go out to the field, and take me some venison;"

Barry,

Carbon Caster is on the ball. Check out Pete Ward's link. I think he has a lot of that techno stuff on his page. You can go to the AMO homepage too for all the industry standards.
