Your bow probably has too long of a draw length for you. You may not be reaching the let off.Take it to an Archery Pro Shop (Not Bass Pro or Cabelas)and have them check your draw length and then check the bow.

Im FAR from an expert but I agree with jmbuckhunter that your draw length isnt allowing you to get to the let off
