Default Fore Arm Slap

I am 6 foot tall and shoot with a 28 1/2 inch draw with a string loop. Here is my question - I slap my forearm with every shot! Now most of them are just a brushing (but some have left bruises).

I can't believe that my draw is too long (kisser button to the corner of my mouth - fletchingtouching my chin). I try to drop my elbow slightly down and away from the bow at full draw, but I still get slapped.

Any suggestions or clues to why I keep hitting my arm - I am concerned for when I have to start adding layers of clothes, and because I wonder if this means there is some other problem with my form or bow set-up with which I should be concerned.
