Measuring arrow length is an important part of selecting the right arrow for your bow setup. Here are the steps to measure arrow length:

  1. Use a measuring tape to measure the distance from the nock groove (where the arrow nock sits) to the end of the arrow shaft.
  2. Round the measurement up to the nearest half-inch. For example, if your arrow measures 27 and 3/8 inches, then round up to 27.5 inches.
  3. Add an additional 1 to 2 inches to the rounded measurement to account for the length of the arrow's point insert and broadhead. For example, if your rounded measurement is 27.5 inches, adding 1 to 2 inches brings the total arrow length to 28.5 to 29.5 inches.

It's important to note that arrow length can also be affected by the length of your draw, so it's important to measure arrow length while at full draw to ensure accuracy. Additionally, different types of arrows may have different recommended lengths, so be sure to check the manufacturer's recommendations for your specific arrows.
