I think a 58" might be alittle short for your longer draw.I draw 27" and have a Zipper ZSR 62",I like it and wouldn't want it any shorter.Personal preference for me,I don't really care for really short bows except maybe a forward handle bow like a Super Shrew or similar type bow.

Bill draws 28" and likes a 58" bow,I draw 29" and I like that lenght as well!So with a 60" you are on the safe side!

I draw 29" as well. I can shoot the 58", but like the 60" SXT better.  :thumbsup:

I'm plus or minus 29 and both the 58" and 60"  work for me. My buddy draws 30+ and shoots my 58" well and likes it. Good luck. As soon as Bill spills blood in Minnesota he'll start checking his messages. It usually doesn't take him long!

I have a Zipper standard with 60" longbow limbs and 64" recurve limbs. I draw 29+ and have no issues with either. I just got a 17" ILF riser from Bill and I'm shooting a set of limbs that make it a 58" bow, it seems to be working just fine for me....I do shoot 3 under! But as was said above be patient and Bill will get back to and tell you his opinion. He is very helpful and willing to work with you!
