How much of this can be in your brain? I've noticed a few times when I have changed bows that my "group" ( I use the term loosely :D) will move off to the left(say). If I just keep shooting, over the next hour or so the group will drift to the right until it gets as close to the centre as it's going to. I don't put any conscious thought into this it just happens. If I go back to the other bow the reverse happens until I'm more or less hitting the centre.

if all the arrows are the same spine even if they're not spined to the bow, the arrows will fly consistantly. juuussstt maybe a little or a lot to the left or right.

That's not totally true, Russssellllllll. When arrows are far enough off from matching the bow they can go anywhere when you let the string go. Nothing consistent about them.

Muzzle loaders are similar when the round and the charge aren't friends. That round can go anywhere from shot to shot even when the charge is the same. So you tune the gun in to the round by adjusting the charge. Eventually they become friends and more often than not consistency is right behind.

Thanks for the advise, i think they are too stiff , conpared to a good Arrow they are also thicker indeed.
I now also understand the term fishtailing since i shot a real thin Arrow a further away target and Saw It go left and right. From close by that same Arrow hits kind of good
