holy shit guys, some of u guys ave insane reaches for your height, like 5'10 77 inch reach ... thats huge... what would you guys consider to be a good reach advantage... like when does it start to matter... 2 inches??? or does it really start to count at 3-4???

Yeah, I don't get these reaches either. I'm 6'2", have longer arms than most people I know, and my reach is 75" (191 cm).

 

[darnok]

Im 72 inches tall and approx 75 inch reach.

 

[phenomfan1529]

should i be making a fist when measuring my reach?

should i be making a fist when measuring my reach?

nope its from middle fingertip to middle fingertip.

 

[CowboyPete]

I love my long, lanky arms.

 

[DaTruth]

Yeah, but reach is misleading because you can have broad shoulders and short arms and have the same "reach" as someone with a skinny frame and longer arms. I fall in the broad shoulders/short arms category (5"9'/69')

 

[Goat Meal]

Yeah, I don't get these reaches either. I'm 6'2", have longer arms than most people I know, and my reach is 75" (191 cm).

Yeah, I think some people are just flat out exaggerating.
