I have a Check-Mate Hunter. I have a 62" model with two sets of limbs, 45#-55#. I prefer the longer bows because of the smoothness of the draw. I've owned 56' and 58" bows and although finger pinch isn't a problem at my 28" draw, I find the shorter bows less stable and less consistent. (through the chrono) I do have a little more problems shooting out of a treestand but nothing that really bothers me. The Hunter II is also a great bow although a bit slower. (3-4fps) Not much to worry about in my book.
Hope I haven't confussed you more. Bows come in all shapes and sizes. Try and shoot as many bows as you can get your hands on. It seems that everybody likes something different.
