I would go with a beeler, have a 56 inch one. I shoot it better than my longbows 62 and up.

My favorite (with my 29.5" draw length) is the 56" Shrew Classic Hunter for a longbow and the 56" Shrew Lil' Favorite for a recurve. With your 27" draw, you could easily shoot 52" or 54" Shrews. I have four or five 54" Shrews that will easily accommodate my longer draw length. I also really like my 56" Big Jim Thunderchild, and you would be well off shooting a 54". Although I haven't shot a Hoots, after visiting with Lee Hoots and talking with the guys who have shot the Hoots bows, I am confident they are outstanding little bows. I also have a Morrison Mini-14 phenolic ILF riser with C limbs that makes a 56" bow that is pretty maxed out at my 29.5" draw, but shoots great.

At least for me, my 50" Black Mountain Sheepeater bow has been a disappointment, but before I say anything that would not be complimentary about the Sheepeater bow line, I would like to shoot some besides the one I bought. I like the idea of the Sheepeater with its static limbs, its very short overall length, and its ability to accommodate a long draw length, but in my hands, it just doesn't work all that well.

I've got a bow that I'm pretty sure is blind. It can't seem to hit anything.

Love my 56" Bruin HR. I do not hunt out of a blind but I do hunt out of a regular sit and stand climbing stand with no problem at all. No stack at all in this bow.

For a one piece you can go with the 56" Cree, which happens to be the St. Judes Hope and Faith currently traveling around the US.

 

Or as pamike suggested, The Bobcat.

 

Available in 56" recurve, or

 

56" hybrid long bow.

Kenny,
I actually have a date with Faith for the month of December.  Anxious to give her a try.

Never question a man's choice in bows or the quality of an animal he kills.  He is the only one who has to be satisfied with either of those choices.

I have owned a Hoots bow and I would say it would be a perfect blind bow.

Get ahold of South at Stalker a 56" or 58" static tip would be the ticket  :thumbsup:
