Default Short draw when cold.

I was out shooting my broadheads last night and was told by my hunting partner that I was leaving a good 4 inches of arrow in front of the bow. I do use full length carbons (30" ) for the weight and only draw 27 1/2 " . After shooting for a while, my draw length seemed to grow back to 27 1/2" This is summer and if my muscles are sfiff now (At 80 degrees), what happens in winter at say 15 degrees with lots of clothes on? I can see where this could cause a miss at game. No warm up and short draw isn' t a recipe for accuracy. Maybe a stretching session before going out in the field would help? Anyone else? Dick
