Default Torque Free Grip OR Bow Level???

I'm having a problem w/ broadhead flight. They are hitting way to the right of field points but,it seems that I can close the gap between the two by NOT watching the level on my sight. According to the sight level the bow is canted, but fp and bh POI gets much closer.
If I try to keep the bow level am I inducing too much torque into my grip?
Should I just let the bow sit in my hand and not worry about the level? I made sure the level on the sight is level with the riser.
I can honestly say this has never been a problem for me. Just this Tribute.
Are the Bowtech's bow hand sensative or do I have lousey mechanics?

I've had similar torque issues with my BowTech that I don't have with any of my Hoyts or Golden Eagle. I think it may be the BowTech grip and your/my hand shape. I have to be very cognisant of hand placement with the BowTech to make sure it sits out on the meat of my thumb. As to your level question, yes, your level should be level.

Does the sight have 2nd and 3rd axis adjustments?

It sounds like the 2nd axis is out of whack.

Like kodiak said the level is sposed to be level.

Yes,
I have second axis adjustment. It's a Copper John Dead Nuts 2 Micro.
I leveled the sight bubble with a level on the inside of the sight window.
