Yes, it is interesting how differently people view/feel the same thing. I am just not that sensitive to things I guess, but I am also far from an archery expert. I have a very limited experience with different bows, and I wouldn't even know terms like "valley" or "wall" if it wasn't for this website. My current bow was one of the faster bows on the market when I bought it, and I shot 4 or 5 different bows at the time and couldn't really tell the difference so I went with the fastest.
I agree draws, valleys are very subjective traits. I have also said many times that those are the last thing I have always considered when making a bow purchase. Once you shoot a bow a while your muscles/mind/body soon become used to it and you will never have a problem as long as you are not over bowed. I mean really 70# is 70# you may get it a little earlier and pull it a little longer but it's still just 70# I always look for other things. The feel of the grip, shot vibration, noise, how consistent I feel with it, and last speed.
