Let me preface this by saying I was a trad guy until just a couple years ago. I'm much better tuning trad bows than compounds. With that said, I'm running into an issue with my compound after new arrows, string and sight this year.
I paper tuned last week and had to tweak the yokes to get good paper tears without pushing my rest too close to the riser. Ended up adding a twist and a half to the left yoke.
When I went to sight in today, arrows were impacting way right. I'm almost out of adjustment room on my sight and the arrows are still right or center. I thought about just shimming my sight out from the riser a bit, but I'm wondering if this is indicative of a bigger tuning issue.
Bow is a Mathews Creed XS, 28.5" cam pulling closer to 29" at 70lbs. Shooting 27.5" FMJ with 175 up front (75gr insert 100gr head)
Arrow flight looked good and groups were fine. Picture is from 30yds. Top 2 are 100gr field points bottom 2 are 125gr...testing point weight.
Can I shim or do I have bigger problems.
