Form Problem
#2
Normally the problem is either incorrect hand position or the bow's draw length is too long---or both. Without gettin too windy I'd recommend doing a search on "form" over on www.archerytalk.com. Look for posts by Nut&Bolts. He's a real guru.
Just a short version, but if the palm of your hand touches the riser or you grip the bow in any way then your hand is not positioned right.

There can be serveral reasons why this happening.
One, you are gripping the bow with too much hand/palming the grip.
Two, your dl might me too long and is not allowing to shoot with a slightly bent/relaxed bow arm.
There are a few other reasons that could be the problem, but being a gambling man, I am betting it is one of these two as they are the most common.
Post a few pictures of you at full draw, it will help a bunch.

At full draw look at the angle of your wrist, it should be straight, if your wrist is bent, as if you are trying to get the palm of your hand looking forward, then you have a form issue, this brings your forearm into the line of the strings path, and ouch that hurts!
Causes:
- to long a draw length
- to much draw weight
