    THAT! Seriously, I learned more from that 12 minute video than probably anything else related to archery I can think of. When JJ said push the hand against the bow without being locked out at the elbow/wrist etc. it clicked. I ran to my bow and sure enough, my draw length is too long. Been shooting it wrong awhile. I Hate not being accurate! Long story and I wont be boring, but I used to shoot some on a pistol team. Thanks again Elk Shape and all involved. :)

    Thank you so much for this video! my draw seemed fine, always felt comfortable with it but I shoot a Stan Perfex resistance and felt something was off because I had to adjust the resistance really low to get the extension to get it to go off and thought I may be a bit long but after watching and listening to MFJJ work with Tim I realized I had my bow arm elbow the same direction, I went down my basement, made the adjustment and holy shit!!! I's amazing what a small form adjustment did, I could hear angels singing as the shots broke

    Okay, so I looked at this and though about checking out a recent clip I posted on instagram of me shooting, and I was leaning WAY back. So I took the advice in this video and shortened my draw length up a half inch on my Hoyt Helix and BOOM, squared right up, no more hyperextension in my left elbow, and I didn't have to adjust my rest, I'll shoot this afternoon and see if I'm steadier during full draw, thanks a TON!

    Great info glad I watched. But I have the opposite problem. My 30" bow I bought when younger and dumber is way to short. When I was young I could power through it. I can't no more. Want to start shooting a bow again but can't get anyone to believe me at the stores. And no one caries anything with a longer draw to even shoot to figure out my actual draw length.

    This here is why I can't get myself to buy a bow that requires modules to change draw length as a more beginner archer. Though if I was a more seasoned archer I would probably feel more comfortable with getting one.

    • @account-ability_2583
      @account-ability_2583 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Once you have your draw length set, you shouldn't ever need to change it. And if you buy a bow from a reputable shop, they should set you up right from the get go. Then buying DL modules vs a rotating mod style cam isn't even a factor.

    This is really the only way to figure out your draw length, having someone who knows what they're doing look at you. All the other measuring ways might get you in the ball park but that's about it. You will still find people swearing up and down that the wingspan method is the best and it's probably the MOST inaccurate way to get where you need to be....
