you must have arms like a gorilla :D You need to find what your draw length is. my draw length is 31.5, my arrows are 30in. from string to end of arrow, not counting point, the rest I use is for a release aid, so I have approx. 1/4"-1/2" of arrow past the rest. If I was using fingers, I would probably add another 1/2"-1" on the arrow. this is a target arrow, for a hunting arrow, I would go longer again.

i'd say its about 30-30.5", but if u can, get a compoumd with the cam and a half system so that you have three or more inches of drawlength to adjust if you need to... depending on the bow, there can be up to 6" of adjustment...

yer... as wareagle said, there are a few bows that i know of that have them... all reflex's i know, and a fair few of the hoyts do, but when you see them, u'll know... there a twin cam system and they have a bright red logo for CAM&1/2 inlayed in the cams
