Hunting bow length

My target form draw was 28&1/4". One day, with my many conversations with John Schulz, he told me that my draw was too long, 27". I shortened it to 26&1/4" right handed and 26" left handed. He was right, I stopped missing easy game shots. However, I am a much better shot with 66" ASLs than i was with short recurves. However, 48" recurves are really cool to hunt with, if you can shoot them better than I can.
