OK, you twisted experts - does this curve look right?
OK, I am new, so new I don't even own an arrow! But, because of various physical handicaps I am not even sure if i can do this sport, so I am having fun putting my target bow together.....so......
I built a draw board. Today I charted the attached curve for 29" draw. The draw stops never made it to the end (about 1/8" away when I stopped) because the pull was exceeding 60 pounds. The mystic is a 35-50 pound bow with adjustable draw stop. The measurements were taken from the first button hole on the rest. 7" brace height. If I want to shoot from the valley (Which happens at 26" should I keep this draw length? Will other draw length settings significantly change the valley location?
Can you change the draw length without using a bow press? Seems like you can, but want to confirm before I launch parts of me and the bow over the fence.
