I'm new to archery. I have a Jennings CMX 60# bow with a tru glow sight/peep sight/whisker biscuit/mechanical release/kisser button. As I've been shooting, my arrows continually go high and to the left - I have slightly adjust my sight up and to the left, but it seems to keep going and I don't have room to adjust much more. Is there something that I'm doing wrong when shooting? My new bow was set up by the pro shop, so I'm hoping everything is OK.

Could be all sorts of different things go back there and tell them. They will hopefully fix this moster they created.

could be string creap, or limbs settling in. it really shouldn't be though. it could also be your changing something your doing, or throwing your bow hand. just can't say from this much info. id go to a pro shop have them look things over and maybe watch you shoot a bit.

I'm a finger shooter and absoultly need to draw and release consistantly. Same anchor point, same grip on the string.
Most importantly, follow thru with your shot. Realease and keep your stance/form.
I kept shooting high and to the left too. My sight is adjusted almost to the limit. Keep adjusting it and see what happens. If your hitting the same spot everytime, your doing something right.

Check the tightness of all the screws/bolts on the bow. I had the same problem and found a small set screw loose. As I adjusted the sight it keep getting looser and I keep adjusting. Really screwed me up :dizzy: .
I had Gander Mtn test mine last year and this year, my pin came loose, and I adjusted it as far right as it would go. Someone from here suggested I go to Hill Top in Greenville and it turned out that my rest was too far to the right and they are the first ones to get my bow paper tuned to shoot a bullet hole.
If you don't get good results with the pro shop you're going to, try another one.
