Default Arrows shooting to the right

I just started bowhunting last year and whenever I shoot my bow the arrows always hit to the right of the target. I have my pins adjusted all the way to the right and I'm still shooting about 6 inches to the right at 15 yards.

If anyone could help me out, I would appreciate it.

You could be canting the bow that will make your arrows hit to the right.

You could also be torqueing the bow that will give the same result.

If you can post some pics of you at full draw so we can see your form.

I don't know alot about bows, so I don't know what you mean when you say I'm canting the bow or torqeing the bow.

Canting the bow is the top is to the right and angles down to the left at the bottom (right handed shooter)

Torqueing the bow is from your grip and is basicly that you are twisting the riser to the right.

Here are a couple of pics of my grip which does not induce torque.

It could also be badly underspined arrows or centershot is way too far to the right. Is your bow tuned? Is thre a shop nearby or someone with the knowledge to help with the setup? Are you looking for your arrows when you shoot? If you do this then you are pushing the bow to the right trying to see your arrows go at the moment of release? NOT GOOD. Keep aiming the bow.

Ausie-guy, nice NO-GRIP. That's what I like to call it. Never could figure out why it's called "grip". If you grip the bow you ain't shootin it right.
