According to measurements and all that Jazz, I am a 29" draw length...and my 2008 Fred Bear Showdown is set for 29" draw. Now, my "problem" is I feel like it's to short. I'm curious if anyone else has had this problem. I still shoot well, just not sure if I should try changing things up to see if I improve. Thanks for any advice.
People don't always measure up to what they actually should be shooting. I measure 26 1/2" and shoot 28".
Are you using the typical "wingspan divided by ... " method to see what you "should" be? If so... there's a lot of times that's not necessarily as close as it could be... Try this... raise your bow arm and hold it out as if you were shooting... straight, but not hyperextended. Make a fist, and stand with your shoulders square to the wall in front of you. Have someone measure from the wall to the corner of your mouth and see what that measurement comes out to be...
Check by a couple of methods and also have an experienced archer watch you shoot. IMHO you are better to be a tad short on draw length than long if you are a BowHunter. Dan
