Have you tried the eye dominance test yet ? I had the same issues as you shooting a RH bow being left eye dominant.

I'm saying under spined as well. Do the broadheads group with the field tips? What broadheads?

Definitely under spined.

I would decrease poundage and see what happens..

I am going with the 100 gr heads, going to pick some up tonight to check the difference. 

Definitely right eye dominant, been shooting for 27 yrs.

Paper tuning was perfect bullet hole, cable slide was at the 6 position, was checking cam lean so that's why it is a 3 postion.  Really just max vs. min vane clearance, with plenty of discussion on Archery talk about this as fix to minor cam lean issues, to Jelly you don't necessarily want min. clearance on the cables.

I agree with the spine issue as the likely culprit, if that's not it, might be a manufacturing issue.  That was also noted on this series of bows but I will be going with the low hanging fruit.

Also as a side note I shoot 29 1/2" 340's for my 70# Mathews and they shoot straight with everything broadhead and field point. But I have a little less on the front end by 34 grains.  Aluminum vs brass insert.  Kind of funny that 5#'s and 34 grains put me through the .300 spines.  Also Easton's chart puts me right in the middle of 300 series or between .280 and .320 for arrows.

So much talk about cam lean.... I'm of the mind that a bit of lean doesn't matter if it shoots and tunes well.  :twocents: so many people trying to fix nonexistent issues.

OK so the 100s fixed it broadheads were within an inch of field points tonight. I verified center shot and adjusted cable guard for min clearance. Hard to believe 25 grains made that difference left to right. Thank you all for the help.

On those shuttle t I set them in time with the fletchings . I think your underspined with 300s 125 and inserts , id knock a few lbs off the draw weight.. you need to shoot through paper and make sure it tears correct. grip can be a big issue . see if the rest isn't getting down quick enough or hitting the shelf and bouncing back up .

Run the thing through paper I'm guessing contact on the rest with the high profile vane or your grippin the piss out of the bow the paper doesn't lie  :twocents: also try running it knock down see if that help but paper tuning is a must in my book before it even hits the range or tryin to shoot broadheads
