String Hitting Chest

When I draw my 62" longbow the string hits me in the chest before I reach full draw. Do you ignore it and complete your draw of do you change form somehow?

Height? Weight? Anchor point and draw length would help also.
When I get to full draw my string just does touch the side of my chest. I don't pull back any further than that.

Fewer pushups and more twinkies!
Your case may be wildly different but when I was having that problem, I opened my stance a bit and the problem went away.
