Default does this sound right ?

I tuned my bow with the quiver on A mathews quiver it's heavy as far as quivers go .
I took it off because of the weight was making me wobble I think. NOW im shooting to the left about 1 inch. could the weight make me that off ? if so would I move the rest or the site ? thanks!!

YES. I never recommend putting a quiver on the bow. Everytime you take an arrow out of the quiver it will need to be retuned! Now if it is removable and you tune with it removed then put it on the bow just to transport, then take it off once at your stand, that is fine.

Your bow needs to balance level in your hand. When you hold the bow with the quiver on the bow, the bow probably leans to the left, then when you take it off, it probably doesn't lean as bad. This is causing the left and rights, most likely.

I practice and hunt with a bow quiver on my hunting bow and see no difference in impact point out to 50 yards anyway. One, arrow 4 arrows or no arrows in the quiver makes no difference to me.

Yep..I'm with Ewolf on the balance thing... I can't stand a bowquiver on the bow when I'm shooting. Causes one to cant/float to the quiver side.

Me like quick detach I take 'em off as soon as I hit the stand/blind.
