After 11 months of shoulder rehab I am shooting again.  I got much lighter limbs 51 at my 30.5 DL. I am shooting 400 gold tip blems, full length and 145 grn fp.  Bare shaft are flying way nock left and hitting way right of the target.  The arrow is almost side ways on impact at 28 yards.  With fletching I still get a fish tail and my arrows hit right of target. Suggestions?

Yes, get your "shooting legs" back under you.  I'm willing to bet that your arrow flight is mostly YOU if you are just starting out again after a shoulder injury.

I know you must be Atlas himself if 51# limbs are "much lighter" but give yourself a chance to re-acquire your shot.

Are you willing to give up what you are; to become what you could be?

Arne, I kind of figured it was me.  I have been watching your videos on youtube.  I never had a good release and still not figured out the rotational draw.

OTOH, you don't have anything better to do.  Cut a shaft back to 31.5 and try it with a 125 grain point.  You should show some improvement in nock left if it is a true weak shaft (I assume you are a RH shooter?).  If there is no improvement, then Arne is probably correct (he usually is).
