    New Bow - Arrow hits nock left

    Long story short, but I needed a new bow last minute and picked up a Mathews V3X 33 a couple weeks ago. At the shop, it shot perfect bullet holes through paper, but when I shot at different distances, the arrow would hit nock left every time. 10-30 yards it always hit nock left. The bow tech said not to worry about it as it will change as my string stretches out. I am now sitting at 200+ arrows and it is still doing the same thing.

    What should I do to get the arrows flying and hitting dead straight?

    V3X 33
    29.5"
    70lbs.
    85% let off
    30" carbon to carbon Easton Hexx 260 arrows
    125gr. inserts
    100gr. field points

    I prefer shooting 200+ arrows through any new bow (or new strings) before moving to paper tuning because the string stretch is likely to change things. Could be worth re-checking it through paper.

    Also, 260 spine seems like it may be a touch stiff for that setup. 300 spine may help

            Fletched arrows on both, and I was shooting.

                Sounds like the shafts could be too stiff to me too.

                I never could get the Easton Hexx arrows to be all that accurate, but that could just be me.

                  I would check your anchor points first. Too much nose or kisser pressure can cause a left tear. If that isn’t it check to make sure your rest didn’t get bumped in transit and is now needing to be adjusted. Also, like everyone else has said, you might be over spined, however I have been hearing lately that being over spined isn’t really an issue. It’s being under spined that causes the problems [emoji2375]

                    I wouldn't think you're over spined with that length arrow and 225grs up front @ 70 pounds, but maybe so. I'd suggest shooting it through paper again and see what it tells you and go from there.

                        Yep, especially at 85% let off. It doesn’t take much if you are a nose button shooter.
