Materials, grip style and string follow, etc are all still big question marks for me.
A case when too much information can be daunting I suppose.
Mitch,
Don't be overwhelmed...that thread is full of good info and, at the same time, a lot of personal preference. Sounds like you are on track with the two major components - draw weight and length.
The rest is your preference. Performance across all of the materials (models) is not a key factor - many guys will tell you that they cannot tell one from the other. You cannot make a mistake there.
IMO, If there is any problem you may encounter it'll probably be in developing an appetite for another "flavor" -pick one that flips your switch...
