I have one the same size as the Doghouse blind, it's just a spin-off make.

Forget about using it with that 64" bow. Heck, I can't even use my 58" bow out of it!

I think you'll have better luck with one like the outhose(68x68, 78"tall).  I have one like the doghouse and ripped a hole in the roof shooting my 58" longbow.  If I cant the bow just right I can get a shot off from it without making contact with the roof.

I can shoot a 56" Shrew out of one, but my 60" hits the roof. Kinda clostrafobic anyway.

Ah the 60 dollar price tag I was looking at had me but I will have to look elsewhere, The only two bows I have are identical 64" schafers.
