With the armslap,make sure you rotate your hand over so your hand is basically perpendicular to the grip.This will create much more space for the string to clear.
Not sure which way you mean I should rotate.......is that a high or low grip? I'm also experimenting with different grips and anchors, including the "thumb behind the neck" anchor point technique.

I'm stopping by the hardware store on my way home to get some PVC for a permanent paper tuning setup. Based on some advice from a semi-local archery nut I met last year I'm going to try a bare shaft paper tune at close range, then see where that takes me. It's a technique I used years ago with a much slower bow, and despite my initial thoughts about it, I hear it still has application with today's faster bows. It apparently takes extremely fine adjustments to get it right. TFOX, you also seem to have faith in it.

This guy swares he can get an arrow to hit fieldpoint true regardless of broadhead size so I'll give it a try.

Thanks for all the comments so far!

Fritz
