I had to put my bow in the shop to have new cables put on. He installed the cables,paper tuned it and set my draw length to what it should be. It feels like a totally different bow! I did have to adjust the rest because it was shooting to the left and the sight is now dead on at 28 yards instead of 25.

The back of the arrow is still kicking just a little bit to the left though. What adjustment will I need to do to fix this?
 
the rest may be off a tad, shoot it thru some paper, if its torn it needs tweeked
 
I'm shooting a whisker biscuit and it seems like the arrow is to loose inside it to me. I know it has to have some play but how much? It looks like the bristles are wearing down on the inside closer to the riser. Could this be part of my problem?
 
Shot a little last night and it now seems instead of being zeroed at 28 yards it is 33 yards! Will changing the cables really make this much difference? I've never had cables put on before and didn't realize how big of a difference it makes.

Anything that is out of adjustment will have an effect--either small or large. You can think of a bow/shooter when combined together is like a well rehearsed orchestra. Any part of that "orchestra" (you, the bow or a combination of both) that isn't playing the music when it should will affect the total sound of the entire orchestra and can sound really bad. When you and your bow are both "playing music like you should" then the sound of the orchestra is beautiful and it sounds like this-- thwoosh, thaawaack.......crash! :)
