My bow is making perfect paper tears but my arrow (when nocked) is pointing WAY to the right, like almost off the shelf.

Whisker bisqut
Lefthanded 50-55lb drw weight dual cam 38 ata
28in cabelas outfitter arrow rated at 45-60lbs
using a release
Please help it shoots great but looks real akward!
By the way I was getting tail left tears until I moved the bisquit to the extreme right.

Thanks

You are probably torquing the bow to the left. Mine use to do this also until someone responded to my post about the montec heads not tuning right. So this is his suggestion, and holy moly when you do it you will see it plain as day.

Nock an arrow and draw your bow while standing in front of a mirror. Aim at you face in the mirror. You most likley will see that you are torquing the bow badly. If you have a long stabilizer attached it' s even easier to see. I sanded my wooden grip down until I was aiming straight.

My guess is that you are putting a good deal of torque on the bow at full draw and compensating for that by moving the rest way over.

One good example of how paper tunning may not tell the whole story

When at full draw look up at the string coming of the cam - it should be coming off in line with the cam - I will suspect you will see it coming of at angle - showing you the torque.

thanks for the info, I noticed my drw length may be a tad short. just recently switched to a release. would this have an effect on the location of the rest?

If you have a digital camera get some one to take a pic of your bow hand when you are at full draw and post it on here.
My guess is if you are torquing the bow that much you are gripping the bow wrong
