I have to be honest in saying that my first thoughts were that you are probably drawing too long of a draw length. However, assuming you are a 32 inch draw length then I suggest checking out some of the longer axle to axle length bows. Usually longer axle to axle length bows allow for longer draw lengths while shorter bows don't always give you this option. Price would be a major consideration in terms of what I recomment but in general....

Bowtech Pro 40
Hoyt Protec
PSE Nova
Jennings CMX

...and I am sure at least one or two Darton and Martin models will also fit the bill though I am not familiar with the specific models this year.

Hop this helps.

I am 6'2" and shoot 31" draw right now. I have had bows and used 33" draw. But, my sleeve lengthis 38". Anyway, right now I am shooting a Darton Tundra Extreme and am very happy with it. I believe with the 65% module (which is what I use), you can get an adjustment up to 31 7/8, with the standard module I htink it foes to 32 3/8".

There are a lot of bows out there for your draw length. Besides Darton, take a look at Martin and Hoyt.
