Talk to Blacktail Bows, Norm Johnson or Alen Pope, sponsors here.  They know more about their bows then anyone and they are both great people to talk with.

For what its worth, I have a 62" Blacktail Snakebit. I only draw a bit over 28" (28.25 - 28.5 depending on bow weight), but I can pull that bow way back behind my ear with no stacking. That has to be close to 30".
60" Bear Super K LH 40#@28
69" Matt Meacham LH 42@28
66" Swift Wing LH 35@28
54" Java Man Elk Heart LH 43@28
62"/58" RER LXR LH 44/40@28

They will get back to you quickly, or go on the website  at    http://www.blacktailbows.com/elite-vl-series.html  
They have recommended lengths for your draw length.

I have a Blacktail Elite that's 60# @ 29", mine is 64 inches and has a very smooth draw.

I have a 53# @28",  60" VL. Love it. My draw is 28".  I think by Blacktail info they recommend the 62" for 28" draw and higher. But my 60" works very well, I don't feel any stacking, it's very smooth and a great shooting bow.

When I bought my Blacktail, I called Norm on the phone.  Easy guy to talk with, and he wants to help you get the right bow for yourself.
