Default youth bow for an adult?

Hey this is Chunker from SW Iowa,

I'm getting my first bow and have been shooting a lot of bows just to see how different bows can feel. I have also priced many, many bows. I shot a PSE spyder, which is labeled a "youth" bow. It was set at 26" which is my draw length and 55#. Since the biggest animal I plan on hunting with it are Whitetails that weight should be plenty. I've also read that a bow functions better when set at or near its highest weight (ex. a bow that can range from 45-65 would work better at 62 then 48) So to get to my question, is there anything else I should worry about if I decide to buy this "youth" bow? It seems to fit me, shot well and was a heck of a lot cheaper than anything else i've shot. Any advice would be great. Thanks in advance. Chunker
