How much do dealers pay for cars - for real?
Are you out of your mind? 10K for a 20K car? You have to be kidding me. Hold back is about 1-2% of invoice on a car. SO, if you the invoice is 20K, ACTUAL cost is ~~ 200-400 less than that. How do I know?? Well, that's how I get paid, and trust me...NO ONE fu(ks with my money. 18+ years in the car business. EDIT: You keep saying "from what I've heard"...well you heard wrong. Trust me on this man. I know EXACTLY what we paid for the cars I sell. AND, the managers at my dealership know no more than I do.
How many pounds am I pulling on my Matthews Mission Craze?
It will vary from one manufacturers bow to another one. Call the archery shop you bought it from and ask them what does one full turn on each bow limb amount too? This information is also in your book you got with the bow. One some of my bows, one full turn increases the weight by 2.5 lbs. On a Bowtech I have, one full turn increases the draw weight by only one pound.
Draw length 1-inch too short.?
Let me help you on this one. There is no problem at all to shoot a compound bow with a inch draw length shorter then your normal draw length. The knowledgeable archers will even tell you it is an advantage to shoot a compound with a little shorter draw . You simple shoot with a slightly bent elbow, which is actually the correct form for shooting a compound. I have found the advantage of the bent elbow, will allow you to shoot with heavy clothing on in the winter without fear of the string hitting your forearm. And in the summer it will benefit you by never having to use an arm guard to prevent the bow string from raking your forearm I shoot a one inch shorter draw length for those very reasons I listed. Just bend the elbow a little, and you will not have a problem in the world with the 28 inch draw length.
