I Haven't had the opportunity to paper tune my bow yet. I still continue to shoot so I can stay in good practice. And out to 40 yds I am fairly accurate. I can hit what I am aiming at. My question is this. Why is it that when my arrows go into my target the nock can sometimes be leaning to one side. I mean I can shoot 6 arrows at a bullseye, and they will all be grouped tightly togetherat the target.. But at the fletching they are almost all pointed in a different direction? I hope you can see the picture I am trying to paint. If not I'll try to get a picture. Thankx for your help.. I would just go to a pro shop but there isn't one around for like 4 hours!!

It sounds like you should go over the bow and check its tune completely. Start by measuring the simple stuff like ATA, Brace height and tiller. Then I would definitely paper tune it. This will identify problems that you might easily fix by just moving your rest or nock. Then if you still have a problem check your cam timing or have a pro do it for you. Its actually not that difficult but takes patience and tinkering, I just replaced my strings & cable and after a couple evenings of tinkering have everything just right and am getting bullet holes. Likely easy to fix if you can figure the problem.

bullet holes, nice work terry. is that with the sidewinder?

i'd like to add that if they are going in in different directions you may be flinching, or letting your bow arm down anticipating release, or jerking your release a bit differently each time. are all the fletchings oriented the same on each arrow when you shoot?

Well, That's some good advice thankyou. As far as twitching while I shoot I guess it could happen. I don't think so, and I had my wife watch me just for that reason. She said I looked good And I am pretty sure that I am am keeping a steady arm as well. My arrows were fletched at a pro shop so I hope they are all good!! Is there a book out there that could help me tune my bow correctly? Or better yet a Video? Tuning a bow for Dummies..! Now there would be a best seller!!!

Whats a sidewinder? If you mean the Safari Twister, then yup thats the case. When Nubo tries this thing even mister muzzy man himself will likely order one, he just doesn't realize it yet LoL.

What kind of target are you shooting at because IMO there are better methods of tuning arrow flight than paper tuning for example bare shaft tuning anyways the reason I asked you what kind of target you are shooting at is because one thing ppl will mistake about there arrow flight is when an arrow is in the target sideways, but the simple truth is that when an arrow hits a target it will follow the path of least resistance so if your target is full of holes and really shot up your arrows may be flying good but its taking the easiest route through the target. This is a scientific fact not an opinion, good luck.

One other thing. I notice you are shooting a Grizzly. When I had mine I found that by removing the plastic sideplates on the grip that my "torquing" the bow was virtually eliminated and my paper tears improved dramatically as well as down range groups.

I agree with TerryM I owned a grizz for a brief period of time and the first thing I did was take off the plastic grip plates. they were very annoying and I hate that it forced you to grip the bow in a way that was not comfortable and to me was not a good grip. Replace it with tennis racket grip tape or somthing along those lines.

Great info thanks ya'll! I am shooting a Yellow Jacket Feild point target.. I will give the side grips a try!
