So does the fact that I am 6'5" with a 31 inch draw make a difference? Also shoot with a super loop on the string.

Yikes! Yes it would be a big difference! I'm 6'3" and I rushed out and got a short ata bow a few years back (34"
and I had alot of trouble keeping consistant groups with it. I tried everything in my power to master that bow to the point where I thought maybe my age or eyesight had something to do with it. After reading an article by Bill Winke about short ata bows and how their not suited for larger archers , I went to the proshop and grabbed a used Martin off the shelf (40"ata) and started stacking arrows again. For me anyway , I've found that between 38"-40" ata is ideal.
The treestand thing shouldn't be an issue. You just have to use your head and think of any possible trouble scenarios when setting up your stand. I had a guy at work ready to run out and buy a short ata bow because his bottom bow limb hit the arm rest on his summit viper climbing stand causing him to miss a buck. I told him to just raise his platform a little higher so when he stands up it's not in the way..He says...oh yeah!
What did treestand hunters do before the mini bows came out?
