I’m thinking of buying a custom bow and I need to know how you determine draw weight percentage and draw length.

Thanks
Not modern bows. I’m talking about the ol’ hickory wood bows.
I’m very new to this. So I really don’t know many of the terminologies needed to know. The main purpose is to display, but I would like to learn how to shoot. I hold bows with my left hand. If you know of any dealers in Oregon, that would be great. Also, if any training courses are availible in Oregon, that would be great.

I am planning on buying a re-curve bow, but have not used a bow in a few years now. I have forgotten the rules, on which type to by, right or left. I hold the bow with my left hand and draw with my right. I assume this means that I should purchase a “right” bow. Am I correct about this? Thanks in advance-
