how to determine draw weight of a bow

[ElkSlayer]

I don't use a scale i just keep adding wieght to the string till it pulls it back... I use my workout weights??

what do you hook your bow to ? What do you use to add weight to ? you have some sort of secret hook ? have any pictures of you doing this ?

confused myself, please explain the adding weights thing. i'm going to go ahead and order a scale anyway, but i'm curious to see how you add weights. as far as targets go, is there one that you can use for both broadheads and fieldpoints? the one i made would only work for fieldpoints and i plan on practicing some this summer with broadheads to get used to them.

You must have a very good($) set of weights. Most cast weights aren't all that accurately weighted compared to what is cast in the side.
