Originally posted by Biathlonman: I've owned a bunch and I wouldn't go shorter then 62" with a 28" draw with a whip. 58" chinook will be good to at least 29", owned a couple of those two. The Toelkes seem to like short bows for a given draw length to eek out all the performance. It seems the folks happiest with Toelkes go one size longer then they usually recommend. Great bows all of them and some of the finest folks in the business!
