Right on. Less let off typically makes you hold more steady.... as will more mass weight of the bow. I swapped the aluminum weight for a solid brass one in my harmonic dampener on my Drenalin to boost the weight a bit. I could see the pin shake everytime my heart beat. On a big buck I suspect my pin would look like an EKG meter.
