Mine is right at the riser so the fieldpoint or broadhead sticks out past my hand.

Do you lose a lot of speed if your 3in. past your rest?

longer it is the more it weighs the slower it goes.. but you don't want it to short cause that will cause other issues

1/4" to 1/2" for target... 1" for hunting.

Have to again with Logjamb. I keep mine about an inch past the rest on all of my setups.

Hunting shafts I like about an inch out in front. 3/d as close to the rest as I can safely cut them. spine makes a difference on length also.

I cut mine approx. 1 in. past the rest, whatever the nearest 1/2 in. arrow length is. Just easier for me to remember my arrow length.

Oh so true! with a 100gr point, a .400 Changes from .400 to .370 at 27.5" in length. ;)
