Im trying to order a bag strap for my father for his birthday on monday, I'm gonna pay for it to be overnighted to me tomorrow, but I need help with which bag strap length I should get. I know this has been discussed a million times but I just haven't a definitive answer. My dad is 5'11, 270 pounds. Should I get the shorter 61-62 inch or the 71-72 inch one?

I'm just about 6'1" and have a longer and shorter.. honestly, I can't tell much difference.

It's easier to shorten a long one than lengthen a short one

definitely 61"-62"

Nibs

if you go with wade's offering, he can send you one unfinished and you can custom adjust to his height and size

The height sounds like a 61-62 would do, but his build will effect things. I'm 5'10" but I have a big stomach which eats up much of the length. 72 is probably more than I need, but 62 just isn't enough. If you have real doubts, longer is better because it can be made shorter... as previously mentioned.

thanks everyone for the input, its gonna make my dad a happy man
