I have a 26 inch draw length which is pretty short. I have a few bows that are in the 35 inch range, and a few in the 30-33 inch range. My next bow will be a minimum of 35 inches ATA.

I don't see how these guys with longer draw lengths can shoot the short bows. I am so much more comfortable with a longer bow and less string angle.

And to tell you the truth I can't really tell difference between any of them as far as the way they handle when walking around or being in a stand. When you lay my 35 inch bow down and lay the 31 inch bow next to it and center it there really isn't that big of difference after taking into consideration over all length with the cams and everything.

I really want a reflex carribou, but the draw length doesn't go low enough. I might see if I can get around that though.

That's my personal view on it, some like the short bows.
