        Anybody have a line on a good bow scale? For measuring draw weight? I would prefer a hand held model that marks peak weight without having to do impossible things with my neck to read the thing. Thanks in advance, JB:?:

          I have one of these and it works good. I also have a hanging scale that I’ve calibrated with a 50# weight and this hand drawn scale seems to concur with it. You might check it out.

          P.S. This scale has a marker that stays put at the poundage you pulled to when you let it down.

            JB, I enthusiastically second R2 on this scale. It couldn’t be easier to use and I’ve checked mine against other scales and it seems right on. Plus it exactly agrees with the marked poundage of my bows. I think your problem is solved.

              I have the same one in R2’s post. It works very well and should get you within a pound.

                That is what I understand as unanimous. Thanks for the help, guys…JB
