I know this is subjective but the light bow shot with a 'thump' and the heavy with a much louder 'thunkkk' and now they both go 'whiish'.  I shot them twice today and they are really shooting sweet with the skinny strings.  Hope you have good results if you give them a try.

I agree 100%!  The hand shock I'd feel periodically was from inconsistent form on my part.  I don't think it hides the inconsistency as I'm still aware when I do something wrong - I just don't suffer from the twanged bow hand now.
