Bow draw length

Postby Phishstrangler75 » Wed Dec 05, 2012 12:30 am

I am a 6' 2" man and my hunting bow has a 31" draw. Is there any way that I could be permitted to use a bow with over a 28" draw so that I don't shoot from a point three inches in front of my face? Just wondering. I probably won't be doing archery any time soon anyway.
I am the realm leader for Wrythyk in La Grande and I want to do things right, so please pm me some tips, cautions, insults, or critiques. Thank you.

No, you can't have a personal exemption from the rules.

You can, however, use arrows with a 28" draw stop with your 31" bow, but it has to be under 35 lbs.
