    The problem I am having with it right now is that it won't paper tune at all, even a walk back tune hasn't helped. I've checked the level and the nock point and everything squares up. Through paper the bullet point is right about an inch but is level with the shaft tear that is left. Where I am lost at is that no matter what way I move my rest left or right the tear is always to the right. I'm using a QAD HDX and have absolutely no signs of fletching marks or contact. The timing is spot on as well. I do work at a archery shop and the three years I've been doing this I've never seen this with anyone else's bow, nor has a gentleman here with 20 years of experience or another guy with 13 years of experience has ran into this trouble. So im at a dead end and any suggestions would be great!

    Set up
    Faktor 30
    DL 29"
    DW 70lbs
    Easton Da Torch 330s 100 gr tip
    QAD HDX rest

    Try taking 1/2 twist out of the left yoke.

    I had the same problem, so have a lot of other people with these bows.
    Factor30 on here pointed me in the right direction.
    Assuming your right handed, set your rest at 3/4 of the riser, not the pad.
    Put one twist in the left yoke, take one out of the right. I had to do one and a half but my tear was worse.
    When you retime , do it so the top hits about an 1/8 before the bottom. This really firmed up the back wall.
    My fletched and bare shafts now hit the same at 20yds.

    You really gotta play with it, I'm at least to the point now where I'm not going to throw it in the river.

    Hope it helps.
