For the rest of your days what would it be? Where is your sweet spot? Include draw length, type of game and terrain you commonly hunt as well if you would like.

Primarily spot and stalk hunter put west. 29" draw.
Nice. I'm a western hunter as well and while I do a lot of spot and stalk hunting I also hunt over a water hole from a tree stand for elk a lot too. In fact, I probably do that more than anything. I'm trying to figure out a one bow for everything type of setup and trying to decide on what length I would like. I'm thinking a r/d longbow in the 58 to 60 inch range, but at my 27 inch draw length In even considering 56 inches as well. Top contenders are a Toelke Pika, Toelke Whistler, Javaman elk heart, or Javaman Falcon. Decisions, decisions.

I can shoot my 62 inch bow out of a double bull blind for what it's worth.

I have a couple 62 inch bows and the length of them doesn't really bother too much. I'm not sure if it's wise to try to move too short. I do have one 60 inch bow and that just feels really perfect to me. That's the length I'm kind of leaning towards the most.

25.5-26 inch draw, I much prefer shorter bows, 54 -56. I’ve had a pile of 58-62 and my shorter bows do everything the long ones did, just better being shorter lol. East coast tree stands to western elk and Mullies. I will prolly never order another bow bigger then 56 honestly.
