Do you prefer a longer bow or short bow and why?

All things being equal the longer ATA bow will be more accurate any day, all day. That's because it has less tendency to yaw around. It's purely a matter of physics and no dispute is necessary. Now add some more brace height to the shorter bow and things can start to even out a bit, but the longer bow is still a more stable shooting platform.

That doesn't always mean you will shoot more accurately with a longer ata bow however. Only that it is a more stable platform. I shoot my 30 inch bowtech better than I do my 35 inch darton. I think the bowtech has a better grip.
