I'm shooting to the left a good 12 inches but only while shooting in my climber.On the ground I'm fine.Any ideas?

Better yet. Are you bending at the waist?

next time from the tree come to your archor level with the ground line up on a tree level with you. once your at anchor then bend at the waist to lower everything on the target. you have to maintain the same angles as when your are on the ground, bending at the waist will get this done.

If you just drop your bow arm down to get on target your anchor point has changed and no tellin where the arrow is going..

good luck....

Sounds like you are canting the bow while in the climber.A good sight with a level might be a wise investment.
