Default new sight, and the bow feels out of whack!

i just mounted a trophy ridge nitro extreme. I feel like the pins are tilted left when I am at full draw. Also, it doesn't looke like there is enough room to move the sight far enough to the right to get it centered over my rest. What do I do?!!! please help.

I noticed on the 2004 Trophy Ridge Nitro Extreme it has a bubble level, does yours have the level bubble?
If yours has the bubble level are you making sure that you are centering the bubble in each shot? Make sure you arent canting the bow
Do the pins look tilted in relation to the bubble? if so I would send the sight back for replacement.
Make sure that your riser is straight at the point where the sight attaches to the riser, a slanted or bent riser will show a tilted sight.
As for moving your site to the right you can purchase a sight spacer, I have some they are basicly a piece of rectangle metal with the holes drilled to match most bow risers, about a 1/4 of a inch thick, it mounts to the riser and then you mount your sight on top of it, it will bring your site farther to the right.
In a pinch when I didnt have a spacer bar I used some steel washers under the site mounted to the riser, worked also.
