Default Paper tune question?

The snow was blowing pretty hard today so I got tinkering with the bow in the basement. Did a paper test and I get a right tear about 1" from the tip impact hole. Went to the eastman site and followed the instructions to fix this and by the time I had it perfect ( moving whisker bisquit DT QS rest to the left) the center shot was way off, scary off. I am shooting my Grizzly at 65lbs and shooting(27"" shafts, 27" DL) Redhead carbon Fury 350 shafts which are rated 6075. They weigh 11GPI and I have 100 gr tips on. I am right handed and use a Scott L B Goose release on the string. Being relatively new to this game I am guessing I have a shooting form issue. I also have some GT 5575 coming next week so I will try again with those. So, do you think I'm just torquing the bow or something or do you see an equipment incompatibility here?

could be spine, could be that its just a clean hole from that particular distance. if you can back up another 5 ft try that and see what kind of tear you get.
