How do you measure bow length ?
Are you ment to measure tip to tip braced.
Or are you ment to measure it un braced.
Are you ment to follow the lines of the bow or straight from tip to tip.
Either way, my supposed 60 inch Titan/SF combination actually comes in at 57.5 inches braced.
My old 68" inch Hoyt comes in at 66" braced.
But my 58" Bear Brown Bear Hunter comes in at exactly 58" braced.
So am I doing this wrong on two of them but getting it right on the other ?
Is somebody just messing with my head ?
Have I never shot the bow length I thought I was other than with my Bears or am I finally going nuts like my Mrs has always said I am ?
I can get the .5 on the Titan set up because it's an uneven number/length riser but it makes it rather hard to order new limbs if you don't know weather their talking braced, or unbraced in which you lose 2",,,unless you buy a 40 year old Bear.
And why would they call it a 68 inch bow if it's really 66 inches when you actually shoot the bloody thing.
Help,
John.
