It depends as there are many ways to draw a bow. There are three main answers, 2 fingered, 3 fingered, and then with a mechanical release. [I use three fingers, but every person is different].

What are limb bolts on a bow?

Limb bolts are small components on a compound bow that are used to adjust the amount of draw weight. By tightening or loosening the limb bolts, the tension in the limbs is altered, which in turn changes the draw weight of the bow.


You bought a used bow the draw length is 30 but you are a 27 can the bow be adjusted for 27?

If it is a compound bow, the type of bow with the pulleys or "wheels" at the ends of the bowlimbs, there should be some way to adjust the draw-length of the bow itself; it may be best to consult someone at an archery shop for the best way to make such an adjustment. When using a Traditional bow -- a recurve or longbow, or other non-compound type -- the only "adjustment" is to simply pull the string back (in this case) to 27 inches; reducing the draw-length in this way also reduces the effective draw-weight of the bow. Also, when using a Traditional bow, and the archer has a longer draw-length than the bow is rated for (i.e., the archer's draw-length is 30 inches, but the bow is rated at 27 inches), it is always advisable to make sure the bow is designed to withstand the longer draw-length. Failure to do so can result in the catastrophic failure of the bow, and possibly serious injury to the archer. Increasing the draw-length of a traditional bow will also increase the effective draw-weight of the bow.

How do you adjust the draw weight for a jennings forked lightining compound bow?

The draw weight should be marked on the bow. You cannot go any higher than the marked draw weight unless your bow has removable limbs, then you could buy limbs with a higher draw weight. You will ruin the bow if you use it with a higher draw rate.
