Default Shooting to the right

Hello everyone i have a problem i switched to carbon arrows and i love them i dont know if i developed a bad habit or what but i shoot hunter class but i am shooting to the right i moved sights everything and stuill shoot to the right. me and a fellow archer paper tuned it and the center shot was fine and my cams are in time also. Dose anyone have any idea what i could be doing and how i could fix this problem. I mean im still winning all of my shots or getting 2nd or 3rd but i dont like aiming left though.

I am using a revolution triumph bow, carbon express arrows that are shooting 279 fps and im pulling 52 pounds.

More info needed: Do you shoot with fingers or release? Old and New arrows vanes or feathers? Are you sure your not hitting your rest? Arrow will kick if it is.

Ok......on your rest: try taking some stiffness out of it. Carbon arrows are lighter. Your rest sounds to stiff for those arrows. See if that helps.

All I can tell you is go to your local Archery Shop and ask for help. Tell them what your arrows are doing and they will fix it for you.
And also remember Speed isn't everything, You don't need speed if you can judge distances. Speed helps but is not the answer.

You know I over heard two guys talking about these nocks on there carbons and if you put them on updisedown the you will shoot off to the right real bad.

I dont know the name of them but they are suppose to be expensive nocks and if installed wrong make you shoot off. Can anyone back this up?

As an Engineer I find it hard to believe that simply turning the nock to the opposite side will make you shoot to the right.

VorTec, I will check in to it. The people I got that info from have been shooting a long time so I assume the know what they talking about but I will try to get some more info on the make of nock and why it would have that effect.
