Hello again people!!
Thread title says it all. I'm getting groupings, but all well to the left of where I'm aiming.
This is a recurve, sight is an Avalon Tec X olympic, pressure button is not stuck because I have checked it with my thumb (although I suppose may be set incorrectly as the shop did it and I have no clue how to set them).
At 20m for example I aim at dead centre. I get everything in a nice 4" group, but the group is 9 o'clock bordering 6 ring 7 ring. (This is on a 40cm face, not those big ones)
Adjust sight to chase the group and the same thing happens. Adjust sight more, aim dead centre... everything lands 9 o'clock bordering 6 ring 7 ring. Hmmm...
Aim off to the right, nice group in the middle. That's not really the solution I'm after, I'd like to know what causes this to happen. I've adjusted the sight so much now that there is no more thread to adjust it further and everything still goes left. By the same amount.
The effect reproduces at different ranges, yes the group size varies and the amount left varies but it's always left. Happens indoors as well so cross heavy winds off the list. I did borrow some arrows a spine down from mine, just to see whether that made a difference. Tried them without adjusting the pressure button and exactly the same thing happened, same group size, same amount left.
It's not a massive problem, I can aim off to hit the middle but I'd love to know what could be causing this.
Any suggestions?
