Just seems its probably losing some energy having to straighten itself up first and then protracting forward to sling the arrow.
And by the way, its juiced up as hell, I told the shop to do whatever to make it 70lbs+. I know you think I'm crazy but I can pull it easily.
Thats your answer right there.
When he juiced up that bow (love that term for it by the way.... found myself laughing at 4am).... he did so by twisting up the cables.... the cables are on the right side of the cams if you are a right handed shooter. Because they are torqued down right much harder than they are designed to be... that can easily kick the bottom of your cams off to the side.
Take a couple measurements on your bow.... check the axle to axle to length and brace height... if they are out of spec, that could well be part of the problem right there. If you balance those back out (granted you may drop back down a pound or three), some of that lean ought to go away. Most bows bottomed out and in spec will still be a good 2-4#s over what they list at... part of that is probably the mass weight of the bow itself. Frankly, I find 2-4 #s academic at best anyway... especially if you are losing effeciency and therefore speed and stealth rather than gaining it.
