6'3...26.5 for longbows and 27 for recurves. Long torso. Plus, I stand almost facing my target. I can draw longer, but I have found what works best for me...23 years instinctive as a right handed, left hand shooter.

Well, it looks like there isn't a lot of correlation between height and draw length. Other than length of armws, I think shoulder width would have something to do with it. If you have a lot of inches between your shoulders, your draw length would be longer, wouldn't it?
5'4" - 26" draw
6'1" 29"
5' 8 1/2"
My draw completely depends on the width of the grip. It can range from 27.5" on a thin gripped recurve like a Kwyk Styk, to 29+" on a wide grip Damon Howatt recurve.
Makes you wonder why we don't measure draw length similar to brace height, by measuring to the throat of the grip. That way our draw length would stay more consistent in length. I'm guessing the reason being it's just easier to measure to the front of the riser.
6'6" 29 inch draw.
6'2" 27.5" draw. Slightly bent elbow and open stance to keep the string from catching on my clothes. If i were to shoot a target archer style my draw would be around 29".
6' 4" 32" draw
5'8" 26.5
5'9" and 27 inch draw
now get the same guys to measure fingertip to fingertip with arms spread out to their side....and correlate this to draw length and I think it would be more easily discernible.
though my draw changes from recurve to selfbow by an inch or slightly more.
also upright target stance versed bent at waist open stance makes difference.
5'11.5" and I pull an honest 31", my wife is 5'9ish and pulls 29" on days she's not hurting. We both have long arms, but trick is not to be overbowed and get your draw arm far enough back that your upper arm is inline with your torso. Most people don't do that.

I'm about the same height just under 6' tall, and shot 29" for years. Just recently i've been working the bale on my form and alignment, and found a better anchor point and my draw has gone to 30.25"...... it's made an incredible difference in my shooting consistency too.
5' 7" and 28.5" on longbow grip 29" on recurve grip. My buddy is over 6' and draw just under 30". I have broad shoulders and long arms.

A bit late to the party - 5'-11"
28.5" upright stance draw with 29.5" arrow BOP
I like the inch to play with, which will
probably make a bunch of you shudder!
I do use shorter arrows with my short 'plains'
style primitives and exactly 28.5" with my Tamerlane and Colt Trophy target bows.
6 and 29
5' 9" draw 25" shooting a hybrid longbow or recurve. I have had people measure my draw length pulling a arrow on a light bow standing straight up tournament or compound style and was told it was 28". So the grip, the way you grip the bow, and your form has a lot to do with your real draw length while you are actually shooting (not drawing and holding).
6`6" Learned to anchor at 32" otherwise the arrow tip goes onto the shelf.( 6`11 wingspan)
6'-2" with 29.5" draw with 1-piece longbow and 30.5" draw with recurve (medium grip).
5'11" and draw 27.5"
