the string is just a bit farther away from the eye so usally you just have to shoot a bit bigger peep
As Carp said consistency with archery is the key. An exaggerated example would be instinctive shooting and drawing your anchorpoint back to your right nipple. As long as you shot it the same way every time and your anchor point was the same everytime you could learn with repetition to shoot accurately. Why we dont shoot that way is keeping everything in line from target to eye is easier for the brain to compute.Shootmoore

Guess I will keep shooting the PSE Fireflight and purchase my new longbow.Shootmooreleast we can pull off the "i'm just a tree" routine if the deer bust us

i have not had that problem as far as far as having your eye farther away. i almost think it helps makes the pins seem smaller because they are farther away.
Oh yea and at least your 32" draw is consistant to your height! I'm only 5-11. Try finding longsleeve shirts for a guy 5-11 with the same wingspan you have? I dont have to bend over to scratch my knees I guess!

Try finding longsleeve shirts for a guy 5-11 with the same wingspan you have? I dont have to bend over to scratch my knees I guess! so I'm guessing your bow choice is even more limited in that you need a 32" draw with at least a low 30" axle to axle? Or does it matter to you?
Don't matter to me really, I prefer longer axle to axle as they seem to be more forgiving and god knows I need al lthe forgivness I can get. I shoot 68" recurves and 68 to 72" longbows.Shootmoore
since you are a new haus if i were you go to a pro shop and get fitted right and see what you shoot the best. and not have to guess and order a bow that won't fit.
I have a 33" draw and I shoot Darton bows, if you can find a bow shop out here that carries them check out the Pro 5000 2 1/2 cam, I absolutely love mine.
