Maybe,im just a little hyper sensitive,but i feel a bit smoother draw,with my Pards 62"er,than i do with my 60"er.I think if your draw is 28" or longer,id go with the 62.Herb Makes an outstanding bow,no doubt about it,but i feel,his length recomendations fall a little short of mine.HaHaHa!I crack myself up sometimes.
Target archery is seeing how far away you can get and still hit the bull's eye. Bowhunting is seeing how close you can get and never miss your mark.

Can't speak for the pronghorns but I love my 60" longbow. Smooth and Sweet. The pronghorns I've shot have been smooth and sweet as well. I can't imagine 60 to 62 having much difference.

Is there a chance that Herb would sent you out one of each to test drive?

best of luck.

Like I said over on LW I just wish mine would come in the mail. The wait is killin me, I have sold all but my wifes bow and I'm sick of just shotin it. Good luck with the decision.

58" is fine for a 28" draw length.

I draw 29 inches and I really like the 60 inch.  I have a 56 inch too and I love it for hunting out of a blind, but you have to pay close attention on the shooting form.  My brother has a 56 inch, a 58 inch, 2 60 inchers and a 62 inch.  He likes them all, but we agree on the 60 being our overall choice, especially above 55#.

I have A 27" draw, bought A 62" just awhile back and then sold it. The 60" for me had alittle more snap. My 56" is really A dandy but is less forgiving, A great blind bow! Pete
