my guess would be if the arrows are doin the swaying would be a tune issue from switching rests...did you tune after you put the new rest on?? once the rest timing is correct, you gotta tune it to get it shooting well again...
The back end of the arrow is swaying. No I have not tuned it yet.

my guess is if the rest is timed proper (and you said it seems to be now) and the vane contact is cleared up, is you need to tune and that swaying will be gone...

theres a couple tricks to check for vane contact if you think you still might have some issues there...lipstick on the edge of the vanes will tell the tale...if it makes contact you will see it...

good luck

I dont think the fletchings are hitting the rest. The reason I say that is because my arrows aren't just swaying to one side. There back end is making a circle pretty much. Im not sure how to explain that. Like if you picked up your arrow by the tip and you started waving the fletching side around but kept the tip still.
