Arthur,I think I agree with EVERYTHING you posted,and that is another reason for good form.
My bow has a 7" brace and 1 1/4" reflex and 36 a-a.I am shooting it set on 28" with a long d-loop.That is as far as I want to go into the unforgiving relm.
If I had as long of a draw as you,I wouldn't want to go below 38" a-a for hunting and probably 41" for tournaments.
