Title: arrow length
Post by: CRO on June 10, 2007, 11:55:00 PM
What would be the best arrow length and spine strength for a 28 inch draw, 50 lb  68 inch longbow made from wood.  My draw length is 28 inches.  Thanks in advance.

I like mine to be 1" longer than the distance from anchor to the back of the bow so that at full draw I have 1" between the back of the bow and the nearest edge of a broadhead.  It your draw is 28", that would mean an arrow of 29" should suffice.
