My guess is you would be around 30" but it will vary by how you like to hold your bow. Wherever you buy your bow should have a tech shop as part of the Archery department that will tailor it to your draw length. That is partially your answer as to "where" to find a good bow. Make sure as a first time archery hunter you go to a good sporting goods store with a knowledgeable sales group. Not only will they be able to help you choose a bow that is a good starter bow, but they will be happy to give you all the pointers to have that bow set up exactly how you want it. Don't be shy about being a newcomer to the sport. Tell the sales group you want to get into the sport and you need all the help you can get. Here's where going to a respected sporting goods store should keep you from getting duped by some sales guy trying to get you into an $800 bow right off the bat. They should be showing you some bows in the $350-$500 price range. PSE has come a long way on some of their bows that will be in that range. I also recommend a peep sight and a wisker biscuit arrow rest(couple accessories that are very helpful in the beginning). Shop around and have fun. You'll be so happy you finally got into the sport.
