Default Ever had point weight affect arm slap?

This came up in another thread, so I thought I would see if anyone else has had this happen.

I' m currently shooting an MQ1 with GT 5575 3D Pro arrows at 28.5 inches. I first put 75 grain fp' s in the arrows for a little extra speed. They tuned well and shot well, but sometimes @ 40 yards they would end up in the target just a bit crooked, so I went to 100 gr points to increase FOC. They still shot well, but I noticed that the string was all of a sudden slapping my forearm quite often. I thought it was a breakdown in my form and tried everything to make it quit hitting me to no avail. Since the point weight was all I changed, I went back to the 75 gr points just to see and to my surprise, the problem was solved.

Has anyone else had this happen? I know there are quite a few things that can cause wrist slap, but this was the only thing that made it go completely away.
