Dished...  With Stringfollow you won't need 68" to be smooth. 66" and following the string....

26.5-27" draw, I would take the 68" every time, and once I had one, got rid of all 66"ers to replace em with 68".

dad, I have a couple of 66" longbows and have a 28" draw and can't really tell much difference in them and my 68" bows. At 26-27" draw you'll be just fine with 66".
The years accumulate on old friendships like tree rings, during which time a kind of unspoken care and loyalty accrue between men.

David thats what Jason and Craig both said you really won't be able to tell the difference. I was told 64" to 68" and 62" was pushing it. I had a 68" in the big 5 but it was rated at 28"I got a good feeling about this one. The riser is smaller 1.7/8 and should fit my hand very well. I learned a lot reading all the HH posts.

This is kind of like the military hurry up and wait! Anyhow, I ordered a test kit from surewood douglas fir today. I ordered some feathers and points, nocks and a woodchuck power taper tool. If this stuff get here this weekend I will be making my test arrows up.
