I own bows from starting at 50" and ending at 70". But for hunting I lean toward 56"-62". But I've never hunted out west, just in the northeast. And similar thoughts as the others have expressed. The bow length thing is a trade off. Shorter are generally faster (depending on limb...
Nice shooting! I practice typically 3-5 times a week. I tend to use lighter weight poundage bows in offseason and focus on form. Once June or so comes I start upgrading in draw weight to get comfortable with hunting weight.

Something that helped me a lot was watching Tom Clum Sr.'s seminar on you tube. I think it was Kalamazoo 2020. The does a great job teaching what back tension is, and he is does it in a way that is easily understandable. Just that video will get you light years beyond what a lot of...

Great input from guy's with similar draw length and weight. With good back tension, I top at 29" so I can't relate to that draw length. I shoot a bit lighter too. But looking at your stats, as guys have stated the 300's are too stiff. One fundamental thing I've learned over the years is how...
Great article, a lot of good points made. Where I live and hunt sheds are a bit needle in a haystack, especially after a mild winter. I wish I had more none posted farmland near me.
