The first thing I ever used to check the weight of a bow was two 25# dumbells tied together and hung from the bowstring while it was on the tillering tree.  Kinda red-neckish, but it told me at what draw length my bow was 50#. ;D
 Now I use a viking scale.

yes, mostly bow scales don't show exact results even if you compare again and again but if we own a branded scale, the fluctuation can be narrowed and results will not reflect that much. In this regard, I will suggest you best scales from a best online website like digitalscalesaz.com which offered me a range of branded scales to choose from and that too at affordable prices.

The X-Spot has served me very well. It weighs about nothing so I like the accurate reading I get. And its digital with a two decimal point read out. I wouldnt trade it for any other style.

Like others i started with a bathrooms scale and second thought it after i had one blow in tiller.  thought i was gonna hafta pay thru the nose for a good scale, then stumbled across a $5 fish scale at wallyworld with an analog dial.  shows 50# capacity but goes well beyond if you don't mind a little addition ;)  Has worked beautifully for me so far!   ;D
