Default Arrow clearance help....

i have been having alot of trouble lately with arrow clearance and my bow. i move my cable guard farther away and i guess it moves back or something. there is a black mark on every one of my lower right fletchings from where it hits the cable.when the arrow is nocked,the fletchings are about half an inch away and even when i am at full draw the cable is still out of the fletchings path. im stumped as to why it is doing this. it is making it hard to walkback and broadhead tune. i thought i fixed that problem but apparently not. any help would be appreciated!

Are you sure your rest is set right, and not making the arrow fishtail as it leave? Or maybe the fletching is hitting the rest and not the cable?

without looking at your setup it's hard to say. My first guess is that you have something setup way off center or your arrows are way underspined, but again without being there it's hard to say for sure.
