your fletchings are contacting something on the way out
if your bow is dual cam, the cams are out of time
your arrows' spines are wrong for your draw weight & length

How would I figure out if my cams are out of time?
My arrows spine should be right because I looked at the chart for my draw weight and length.
Thanks for the tips!

It does sound like timeing could be an issue.
Are you shooting a two cam bow?

I am shooting a 2006 Bowtech Allegience set at 70 lbs. and am shooting Easton Lightspeed 340's cut to 28 inches.

Spine sounds right.
What area do you live in? there has to be someone close to you who can tune it up right? :dunno:

There are a lot of variables and not quite enough info. Your Ally is dual cam, so cams could definitely be out of time. Tho I'm not intimately familiar with her, there should be a series of marks on each cam that you would use to verify timing by lining them up with the string. More accurately tho would be to get her into a shop where they can mechanically draw her and verify that each cam is hitting the draw stops at the same time.
I don't have any spine charts here at work, but your choice is affected also by field point weight. So there's one more variable.
Jason's thoughts on your loop/nock/release situation are another variable.
What rest you have and how well it operates is yet another variable.
..... and just to add yet another (that I forgot) is your tiller adjustment. This one is easy to check yourself. (you can measure from the bow string, but) stretch a piece of twine from one cam axle to the other. Make sure it is either centered on the axles or (the way I do it) is wound across the back of each axle and then anchored on the bow somewhere. (like wedged into the cam) just as long as the twine is coming off the axles on the same side. Then measure from string (perpendicular) to the riser where each limb anchors. does not matter where exactly on the riser, just so you measure top and bottom from similar points. This is an indication that each limb is pulling the same from riser thru bow string. Tighten the limb that has the longer tiller measurement (or loosen the shorter. or both) until they are the same. Shoot it some and check again as things settle in.
I hope this helps instead of overwhelms!
Nice bow btw. :)
