Draw length is critical. Set up to long, you will not be drawing and anchoring in the "valley" of your bow and not gaining full benefit of the cams. Plus with no sure "backwall" to anchor against, you will likely have fluctuating velocity.

To short and you may not be able to find a firm anchor point at all, the bowstring wandering around out in the front of your face somewhere different every shot.

Sounds like you got a set up going, shoot for a bit, get some consistency, then go back to bow shop and look some more.
