Jason,
If you are comfortable and confident your sealing will be successful you will probably get by. Just don’t trim any of the bag – in fact I never trim any of my bags first! Otherwise if need be then yes cutting it in half will also work, but as you said you’ll have more loss due to trimming 4 butt ends instead of 2. And lastly, if after attempting to seal it whole and it doesn’t take, just remove the meat, cut it in half and then reuse the larger bag plus a smaller one. Good luck -BTW your set up looks good so go for it with gusto, my man!
