I'm not trying to tell you that the proper draw length would correct every single 'flaw' you felt the OG had, but I still say you'd noticea difference. A draw length that's two inches too long puts you considerably out of form, IMO, which leads to all sorts of negatives. (like getting string-whipped in the forearm.) Maybe getting the OG over the 'hump' wouldn't have felt so bad if you didn't have to pull back two more inches than what you're used to.

I've test-shot bows where the draw length was considerably longer than what I'm used to and it makes a difference, IMO. Other people who shot those same bows would tell me how nice they shot, but they felt terrible to me.

But, of course, I'm probably alone on this. Oh well. Enjoy your bow.
