Default Quiver torque?

I have a Athens accomplice I am trying to broadhead tune and not having luck. At 20 yards the closest I can get my broadheads is 2" left of field point poi. I have tried moving my rest and my field points move as well.
Now if I put on my tightspot quiver and my broadheads hit even more left 4" or so front my field points.

This is a hunting bow and I might not always have a chance to remove my quiver so I am torn as to what to do here.
Basically my thoughts are to sight in with my broadhead with quiver on and never remove it.

Also I have seen these things that offset your stabilizer to counteract the balance of your quiver anyone ever try open.

Thank for any and all suggestions or tips.

Buy a Prime. Lol jks.


Weird that we are both shooting the same quiver and my set up doesnt matter either way. Very odd.

Watch your sight bubble...also focus on your anchor and your grip. 4 inches at 20 yards is too much....something is going on.

Or look into a Stokerized SS1 stabilizer...it might help

Well I might have figured out part of my issue that the quiver was amplifying.
I was shooting a 28.5" Eason Axis 340 with a 29" draw @70.5 lbs.
I went down to swamp donkey and shot my bow through some paper with a right tear an adjustment made this year better but not perfect so we started thinking it was a spine issue luckly he has about 200 arrows there, after we determined that with my set up my arrow could be shortened about 1.75" we started throwing other arrows through all with a right rear finally 5th arrow in bam money perfect bullethole. Ok what arrow was that? Easton 340 power flight cut to 26.75".
Well as Martin explained sometimes it's not as easy as just picking a spine but matching an arrow to a bow to find the perfect arrow for your bow.
We attempted to cut my 340 axis to the same length and still had a right tear.
So for $80 a dozen I walked out of there with a dozen power flights to try.
Little disappointed as I liked the axis but we will see how there power flights shoot and go from there.
If anyone would like to purchase a dozen axis 340's stripped of vanes PM me..... $90

Mike ....Hold off on selling those ...somethings weird there ...the right tear for RH release is a sign of too Stiff of a spine...

Now the .340 is on the weak side of the spine scale for a 70.5 bow...

Cutting the .340 to 26.75 if anything simply stiffened the spine considerably even more...?????

First how did you get that short of an arrow?...what rest ..how far back from riser?

Aside from that a .340 @ 28.5 @70.5 lbs should read a possible weak tear [left] if anything...the right tear would indicate other issues than spine...

#1 Did you try move the rest left?
#2 Did you check for cleance issues...[the most likely scenio]
#3 Did you try a .400 or .300 to test

Something just not right there Mike...I believe you can make the Axis work...
