[beersunny]

how much does it cost to change draw length on a bow? I just bought a used jennings buckmaster and I need the length of pull changed.

also need arrows, quiver, target, and broadheads any input would be greatly appreciated this will be my first year bow hunting.

It shouldn't cost anything. Just bring it in where you bought it and ask them nicely

When buying arrows they will measure you and make any adjustments that are needed. Any decent pro shop will take care of you.

He bought it used and I'm guessing because it is a Jennings Buckmaster, it was probably a private party.

It will still be very cheap to have done, if not free at a local archery shop, it all depends if you "buy" the accessories there.

[beersunny]

yep i bought it from private party.

well if you buy all your other stuff at the archery shop, i think almost every place will throw in the pull change up for free. i got my release loop for free and also they gave me free feild tips with my arrows but i dont use the feild tips.

I think most Jennings bows require changing modules to change draw length. Not that it's a big deal, but I'm not sure if pro shops have modules in stock. You may want to call ahead.

[Pegg]

depends on how much change you need but I think Joe may be right on the mods. Gander will charge a fee and some pro shops might.  I know capras is a little high on prices. Cabelas will set it up for free . Bring it in there and have them look at it. If it needs a mod they will tell you. Not sure if they will be able to get it but you can call jennings and get one and bring it to them and they will put it in for free. Also on arrows they will cut them for free and make them the right length for your bow.

Beersunny, which model Buckmaster is it?  If the bow has a recurved limb to it it is probably one of the originals.  But Buckmaster also made a few different models. 

As for the draw length.  You will probably need a new module.  The single cam on a buckmaster has the capability of adjusting about an inch.  If you need more than an inch you will have to switch the module.  Now most dealers have a selection of mods in stock.........but if your buckmaster is one of the originals you may have a little trouble finding one.  Buckmaster was bought out after they made the original by Escalade Sports and I know that some of the stuff they used to have Escalade has discontinued.  But I may have a mod laying around.  It all depends on which bow and what draw length you need.  If you get a chance and can find out a little more info let me know.  Or swing on into the shop.  I will do everything I can to get you set up as cheap as possible.....and still having a great set-up.
