I am having a brain fart so help me out! How is bow length measured? braced or unbraced?

Had a guy ask me the length of my Dryad and it wasn't written on the bow so all I could do was say "don't know". Not the best answer. A man should know the specs on his equipment.

Unbraced, along the contour of the back from nock to nock.

AMO length is the length of the string it takes to brace the bow correctly plus 3".

Barry,

Carbon Caster is on the ball. Check out Pete Ward's link. I think he has a lot of that techno stuff on his page. You can go to the AMO homepage too for all the industry standards.
