I don't consider myself an "advanced shooter", but I'll try togive a shot at some form of explanation. If I'm wrong, I'm sure that I will be corrected in short order.The shorter the DL, the less time the string is in contact with the arrow, so in that case it would be more forgiving of improper follow through, hence, more accurate; however, with proper form, crisp release, and proper follow through, just about any bow can be shot accurately if it is tuned and shot with the proper spinedarrows. IMO it would be better to feel confident and comfortable with your bow and DL. If you feel it is too short, then by all means tinker with the DL 1/4" at a time until you get it to where it feels just right. For what it's worth, I can shoot my wife's Rascal with suprising accuracy out to 40 yds. My DL is 29"and her DL is 25". It feels funny all crouched up like that, but I could shoot it all day and hit the bull's eye.
