I'm a bit confused as how going with a 1" longer draw length helped your problem??, but to address your peep issue:

1. Try a bigger peep. 2. you didn't say what type of release you use, but if you have an adjustable caliper release, try shortening thatto bring the peep closer to you, but you'll haveto adjustyour anchor point. 3. If you use a loop, shorten that up as well or as a last resort, you could shoot off the string.
Its fairly common that folks want to be able to touch thier nose to the string. If you have a short ATA bow, the string angle is much more severe. So for one to be able to keep thier head angle straight, they have to overdraw the bow.
Very common imo. You see alot of people doing this, and instead of correcting it by finding the right anchor or draw length, they anchor beside their nose instead of nose tip on string

Id say throw a bigger peep in there and see how it feels, and how you group. If you feel that you arent comfortable with the short ata bow, you may think about trying out some longer ata bows.
