Default Need some advice/help/anything

I just had new limbs put on my legacy, it is set to 65#, 400 gr. Beman arrows 100gr. tips, 27" draw, drop away rest. My question is; my arrows keep hitting 2-3 inches to the left, I keep moving my sight, but it doesnt make any sort of difference. Still hits on the left side of the target. The wind was blowing in my face when I was shooting, But I am wondering what the heck is going on with that. And if I move my sights a little more, than it starts shooting to the right, and the arrow looks out of control. Thoughts.........could this be a form problem? I know that I am thinking about this way to much, but it irritates me so.

Thanks

I would paper tune and make sure your rest is ok. Get that done and go from there. Easton has a great guide on bow tuning found at http://www.eastonarchery.com/downloads/

My first thought would be that you could be potentially canting the bow to one side or the other. When you cant the bow clockwise or counterclockwise then shots tend to end up to the left or right of the point of impact. This usually occurs though at farther distances after you have sighted in your first pin (assuming a multiple pin sight).
