There will always be someplace you are not going to be able shoot while you are on stand or in a blind. If you set your stands according to your bow length you will be alright. If you like the bow you will find a way to make it work for you. That's just my opinion.and good luck with the new bow.

You're gonna love that Bama. I have a Hunter model and a 2 pc Royal in those exact specs. Nate's working on my second 2 pc Expediton right now.

Post pics for us and your opinion of her when she arrives.

I shoot 68" longbows regulary from tree stands. I am 5'9" tall and have had few problems. You do have to practice some, though, so that making allowance for your lower limb becomes automatic, but it is really not a problem.

I am 5'8 1/2" and draw 26 1/2" so I'm right below you, I can shoot any bow no matter the length just as accurate as the next. My favorite bows are, all of them! I have taken all of my bows and strung them up and went out and shot them one after the other with no probelms at all. The reason I did this was some one said they had problems going from a recurve to a LB, so I tried it, I think it's all in one's head.

Enjoy the bow!
