    Too many changes and I'm lost...

    Last year i made some upgrades on my bow. New string from Korbins, Ultra quad drop away, spott hogg rest and FMJ 400 arrows. My problem now is, I cant get a decent grouping at 15 yards. Two and a half inches is about the best I can get them. For some reason the draw seems a little different and I cant find a natural, comfortable anchor. Either one or several of these changes has affected these problems. I may have to take it to CCR and let them figure it out if I can't. Any ideas?

    2007 Black ice
    59 lbs draw
    Module DP25 28.5 ( doesn't seem right, since my DL with my recurve is 27.5)
    D-Loop
    Tru Fire 360 release
    Ultra Quad dropaway
    Spott Hogg sights
    FMJ 400 10.2 gpi
    100gr
    arrows cut at 28.5

          Red, have someone that can take a pic from the side at full draw?

            Take it to the shop and have them setup to specs. Have the draw length and the draw weight set where you want it and then have it paper tuned. May save you a lot of time and frustration.

                  if it were me,

                  i'd start over, I'd have the bow shop check the spec's but I'd also remove the peep and re-set it. I have found that i'm prone to adjust my anchor to my peep so setting it right the first time is very important. pull the bow back with your eyes closed, anchor and then open your eyes. Your peep should be right there. If it's not you may be adjusting to get the peep in sight.

                  Also the new string material is going to make the cycle feel different, I've found that better materials like Korbin and other string makers use is much more "stiff" and much less forgiving. . . . . which once you get used to will actually increase accuracy.

                    What he said.

                        Check your draw length , even a 1/4 of an inch to long is enough to start messing with your grouping,it is much easier to shoot a bow to short than to long on the draw.

                          I bet 90% of bowhunters shoot a bow that the draw length is too long. Had a guy come in the store one day and asked for a (whatever kinda) bow with a 29" draw. I just laughed. Guy was about 5'6" tall and had arms like a t rex. I told him Im 5'10" and shoot a 27 1/2" draw. This guy ended up with a 26" draw bow.
