Have you had your draw length confirmed by a bow shop? (not Big 5, Cabela's etc.)No I have not, I was just going by what that site had suggested! Any suggestions on bow shops? Or will any do?

I just bought a nice Bowtech Carbon Icon 2015 from XxX archery in Rainier. Great guys to talk to for starters.
Sweet! I'll have to check them out!
Lucky Shot in Chehalis has been an awesome shop for me.
Just read a few reviews on them! will definitely be looking there!
Thanks guys.

Are you really 6'5-6'6" tall? 79" wing span is crazy long! Makes for a great power stroke and impressive speeds, but does make finding a reasonable cost bow that fits properly rather difficult.
6'2-6'3, I just have long limbs! It's a blessing and a curse. I was looking at the Bear Attitude pretty intently, but I have no idea if it's a good bow. The reviews all say it's great but I haven't talked to anyone or let alone gone and picked any bows up. I just need to talk to smart people like yourself!

Talk to Denton Rock Creek Archery in Enumclaw. He will get you pointed in the right direction.
Awesome, thanks! :tup:

Quite a bit of difference between a 30" draw length and a 31.5". Especially when trying to find the right bow. I would definitely go up to see Denton at Rock Creek and get sized properly before making any choices.
Bear Attitude is a great bow for $400! It's quiet, easy to shoot and has plenty of speed. But at 31 A2A it may be difficult if your length ends up being 31.5". PSE Surge is in that same price range and is also a great bow for the money. Only one inch longer though.

Keep in mind you don't have to buy the makers top of the line expensive bows. The medium priced bows have excellent qualities and reasonable prices
Will definitely keep that in mind!
