shooting to the left
I'm trying to tune my new Diamond Rapture and I keep shooting to the left. I have a laser center shot tuner and my rest is centered. To adjust I have to move my pins pretty far to the left, however this only works for the 20 yard pin. When i move to 30, 40, and so on the arrow flies to the left in proportion to my distance. For example at 30 I'm 4 inches left, at 40 I'm 6 inches and at 50 I'm 8 inches. Should I try moving the rest a hair to the right and leave the pins atdead center even though my laser tuner will show that my rest is no longer centered. Any advice would be great. Thanks in advance.

Somethign isnt tuned right. Thisis the sameproblemI used to havewith multi pin sites, then I went to a single pin site and have no problem hitting my target out to 35 yards or so. Id say center everything. Remember you need to follow your arrows with your site.

That is too consistent to be a torque or form issue. 99.9 times out of a hundred, a consistent 2" deviation per every 10 yards is a rest that's not centered.
For example at 30 I'm 4 inches left, at 40 I'm 6 inches and at 50 I'm 8 inches.
