Devil Horns Posted November 26, 2019 Share Posted November 26, 2019 Does the arrow sit evenly between the 3 brushes in the octane rest? Are the brushes worn? I'm your Huckleberry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
not on the rug Posted November 26, 2019 Share Posted November 26, 2019 I guess the big question for @mazzgolf is where are you located? Any number of us here would be willing to help you if you're nearby Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mazzgolf Posted November 26, 2019 Author Share Posted November 26, 2019 I'm down south. I'm not going to do anything until later... that's all I need is to screw up my head with changes when I finally see a deer in front of me As I say, its only a couple inches off - for my purposes, its good enough for now. Someone mentioned Bob's... I didn't think of that. I might take it over to them in the spring to see what they say. I might be due to replace the strings/cables anyway.

Open hand when you draw and then just relax the hand/grip. Wrist strap on the bow will make sure the bow won't fall. You have a wrist strap on there right? Right - I try to just hold the bow in the V between thumb and finger... I don't wrap my fingers around it all the way.. just enough to hold it steady. Yeah, there's one of those little wrist "cords" on there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's exactly what I'm thinking - I'll just deal with it for now. I was just curious because the last time I went and practiced this week, I was hitting left _again_ and I remembered trying to fix it over the summer and never could. Yes, I'm moving the sight "to the error" (moving the dots left) which should cause me to move the point of impact right. I will take the suggestion about going over to Bob's - maybe in the spring - because I think I might want to replace the string and cables anyway. I don't use the kisser, so wanna get rid of that, too. Of course, in the end, it's all probably me just doing something like torquing the bow during the shot - but I'd rather like to think it's the arrow not the Indian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For me to get the right grip on my bow without torque I have my fingers lightly wrapped around the grip with a little force. That’s my setup though not gonna be the same for everyone. Did you check to see if you’re torquing like I mentioned earlier? That’s going to tell you a lot right there, look up at your cam when at full draw. I never had a shop adjust my bow and my fixed blades shoot exactly like my field points so I’m not blowing smoke up your butt haha! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FBI Agent 28 Posted November 26, 2019 Share Posted November 26, 2019 My sis in law had the exact same issue. I stood directly behind her and said she is aiming left. She disagreed. I told her to look through other eye and bullseye. She was using dominate eye and didn't realize it. Try having someone stand behind you first to make sure you're lined up correctly. Then work on adjusting bow more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Dunlay Posted November 27, 2019 Share Posted November 27, 2019 I wish I could see the way you grip your bow. Have you done any walk back tuning or what idols called "French Tune"?. It sounds like it's not a sight but a rest adjustment. If you send me a friend request on Facebook I can show you on video how to do this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
