choose, you can tailor your bow to your specific needs. Refer to
the following chart to determine your bow length.

Note: Short riser will result in an approximate 2 lb. increase
over the marked limb weight.

Draw Weight
To determine the weight on your Hoyt bow,
refer to the limb specifications located on
each limb. Example: a 25” riser with a long
limb produces a 70” bow with a draw weight
of 34 pounds at a 28” draw length. If these
limbs are used on a 23” riser, the combination
would produce a 68” bow with a draw weight
of 36 pounds at a 28” draw length.

The weight marked on the limb is measured at a 28” standard
A.T.A. (Archery Trade Association) draw length. A.T.A. draw
length is measured at 26 1/4” to the throat of the bow grip plus 1
3/4”. This produces an industry standard by which recurve bows
are measured.

Note: Your draw weight will change due to draw length. Add or
subtract approximately two pounds for each inch your draw
length is over or under the 28” standard.
