Default Bow Shooting Right

I took my bow yesterday to get a new string (Zebra Hybrid) and the guy said my rest was off center. He gfixed it for me and out the door I went. Came home to resight the bow in. Now my bow is shooting to the right a couple inches. I have a Trophy Ridge Flatline sight and it was shooting so far that my windage adjustments are as far right as possible.

It's now shooting dead center and I actually split an arrow at 10 yards. However, I don't really like the fact my windage canot be adjusted anymore to the right. Is this a sight problem. a shooter problem or a rest problem.

It is shooting good righ now, so should I leave it alone and go with it as is? Thanks for the help.

Likely a rest issue. Walkbalk tune the bow and that will tell you. I'll bet you need to move the rest to the left a little.

+1, very likely your rest is out of center. If you ever find you run out of adjustment on a sight, the problem is NOT likely to be the sight unless you've got something OLD and outdated on your bow, or your bow itself is OLD and outdated.
