I kind of rearranged Coach's priorities, but he's got the answers in there.

hey brandon.... you might be outta tune... you might have to move your rest ... I would shoot your arrows through some paper... and then start back at 20 yds then out to 30.... I had that issue not to long ago... my bow just came outta tune, and I had weird arrow flight adjusted my rest and then I shot great.

 After reading through it sounds like you were gripping it off a little, I run into that too, I can only get 30 at my place and I'll shoot fine at 20 then I'll be way left at 30.....I noticed I grip the bow more on release at 30 than 20. It's a thing I have to remain diligent at. But if your shooting great at one yardage and move and the bow goes out of whack it's normally the " Nut" attached to the string ;) :twocents:
