Does the string hit your arm alot when you release, if so your draw length maybe just a tad to long.

maybe 1 shot on 6 hit my arm. But I can't set my draw correctly, the cams are not adjustable[>:][:@]... Next year i'll buy my bow..., I'm having a year to save money.

From what I know you live in an awesome place to bowhunt, you are starting a sport that if you concentrate you will enjoy for many years. You have a year to save an a year to decide what bow you want. When does the bow season start up there? Oh yea an good luck this coming season.

Can't beat a free bow. Looks like you have plently of arrows too. Might have to cut the grass to find them if you're off target.

What is the draw weight currently set on? At 20 metersI would think that arrow should penetrate that target...no matter how compressed it is.

#50, yeah, i know. At the archery field, there was "tentest" target, and the arrow was going 6" deep. That's weird.

Welcome to the world of bowhunting. You couldn't ask for a better group of guys then you will find here to help you along the way. BTW, your draw does look a tad long, but I have seen much worse. Congrats on the bow and welcome to a life long addiction. It only gets worse form here
