The two draw lengths listed, as this bow is not adjustable, does 16" correlate to at rest and 24" when pulled back?

The draw length can be anywhere from 16" to 24". You can pull it back a minimum of 16" to a maximum of 24". This is not technically a compound bow, as there is no let off.

Distance from top of one to bottom of the other is around 16" when fully tightened

My brother-in-law is 6' 4 1/2" and has the same crossbow. He has no problem with it and simply moves the scope forward on the base mount which has several Weaver type slots for doing so. As far as length of pull, wearing typical hunting clothes generally extends the length of pull or you can add a slip-on recoil pad, the same as is used on rifles, to extend the length of pull! Yes, this cross bow is for anyone of any size with simple adjustments or add-on modifications!

this bow wuld be great for you. i have not measured the arrows but believe they are a regular length. My grandson is 10 and really likes it. the pull though is alittle stiff or tight but it is still new. I am very imppressed with the bow for the price.

Krystal, The beauty of compound bows is that they offer you something called let-off. This bow has a let off of 70%. This means that once the cams activate (you reach the peak of the draw force curve), you will only be holding a a portion of the weight at full draw. For this bow, you would only be holding about 16.5 pounds at the 55 pound setting. Hope this helps!

Adult in general. The 29 draw is really long for a normal child and a child may have problems pulling a draw this high. It depends on how the child fits this bow's minimum requirements. You can drop the weight to 50 I think. I'm 6' and my draw is 29". Hope this helps!

I'm 6' and my wife is 5'8". The bow is perfect for me and my wife uses it, too. The draw weight is the only issue for her. So, as long as the person is strong enough for the draw, I'd say maybe 5'6" or more would be ok.

I cut my arrows an inch longer than my draw length, I have a 26.5" draw length (I stand 5'5"), so I cut my arrows at 27.5"

Draw length 30" give or take. My sons bow is a 68" with a 24lb draw. Good looking barebones bow. Good starter bow or new to recurve. Came with string..

i believe the draw leanth of this bow can go up to 30 or 31. which is perfact for anyone up to 6 foot 3 inches.

The draw weight means the amount of force needed to draw the string to its,maximum draw length which in this case is 28" I do believe. If the draw weight is 20 lbs then i would have to excert the same amount of force on the string as i would need to lift a 20 lbs weight. Or, if i tied a 20 lbs barbell to the string of the bow, and lifted it by the handle of the bow then i would draw the bow to the,max draw length. Basically you'd have to pull with 20 lbs of force on the string to draw the bow fully.

The draw weight (less than 14 lbs I think) is much less than an "adult" bow which can be up around 30 lbs or more. This is the force it takes to pull the arrow back fully. I also think it is slighly smaller.

Probably should'nt go over a 20-25 lb draw. You can always go up as strength develops, but proper form is very improtant when using a recurve.

depends on your draw length. i have a long draw length (this bow is just under my draw length by about an inch) so i need a longer arrow. i have a draw length of 32" so i use a 32" arrow. hope this helps.

I can't honestly answer this question. What I will say is that this bow is 5' tall unstrung and almost exactly your height strung. My intuition says that it's not the correct size but I'm not an expert. I would suggest going to your local sporting goods store and asking.
