    I recently bought more monkey tails for my creed just to see what they would do, after a few shots I noticed all of my groupings were slightly to the left. I'm just wondering if anyone else has experienced anything like this? Maybe it was just me?

    I run three on my creed and never noticed a problem.

    How do you have three set up.

    I have two and I'm starting to stack my arrows. Had tuning issues before...unrelated to adding monkey tails.

    I never noticed any problems before, except that the monkey tails break off of my bow after about 100 shots. I did this a couple times and finally said screw it and stopped using them.

    No they have never affected my accuracy. I have never had my monkey tails fall off. They were on my Mathew bows when I bought them and they still are to this day.

    I actually had my first one fall off the other day, ive probably put 2000 shots on my creed and they where on there since day one, first time one has ever broke on me. I run two on the inside cable and one on the outside above the cam.
