Sorry, passed over that link to your post right below it.

is the cord on the drop away "twisted"? last weekend at Austin Archery 3D shoot, i kept seeing a few random shots that my arrows looked to be "wobbling". I was convinced that my cord was slapping the arrow and re-served it. But with that kind of erratic taring, i would think the bow wrist or torquing of the string are in play. # your arrows and see if it is constantly the same ones with bad tares.

Leftridge, If you will notice the tears in your paper, the most consistent problem is a slight nock-low tear. This is indicative of either a stiff arrow, which I don't believe is the case, or a rest timing problem. It appears to me that your rest is staying up just alittle too long, causing your arrow to"ramp" slightly and causing slight vane contact.
Make sure that your vanes are not hitting the cable by setting center-shot at about 3/4 inch from riser to center of shaft, make sure that your idler wheel is straight at full draw, and raise nock point slightly above square.
If this does not give you consistent tears, then you probably have a spine problem( too weak).
Hope this helps.
