[QUOTE="mbarnsr2, post: 937941, member: 72599"] A family member that isn't very knowledgeable about archery, went out and spent a $1k on a PSE set up, all the latest and greatest set up. The only problem is, I think they saw a sucker coming, cause they sold him a bow that only has a draw length of 29", and he has almost a 34" draw length. When I asked him if they measured his draw length, or even asked him what it was, he said they told him it doesn't really matter. So now, when he shoots it, his elbow on his straight arm is uncomfortably bent way out at full draw, so he can't steady the bow at full draw, and is all over the target. I just needed to ask, doesn't he need to be able to stretch his arm all the way out at full draw? Maybe I'm wrong, but I seriously think he needs to go back and make them fix this. They're bow guy should be capable of helping those buying a bow for the first time in making the correct choice, especially regarding fit. MB [/QUOTE]
