Practice a lot and just get used to it.  I Have used a 66" bow for years and didn't have any real issues using it. I think having it vertical is the way to go in your situation.  Don't worry about it, they won't see it, unless you are waving it.  Just shoot one.

There's a learning curve, expect it any time you change things.  It'll only take a few times until you know to look for all lower limb tangles on the ground and remove them, and really practice drawing from a treestand and trimming as necessary.  It looks like a limb so you're not really telegraphing anything.  I have used 68" bows for years without issue once I figured out how to make room or adjust.
