After several sessions a trend has developed where my POI at 20 yards has raised about 2". I checked tune and nothing seems off.

Anyone have to make small sight adjustments periodically?
 
Pay very close attention to your anchor point and how your eye is aligned in the peep in relation to your sight pin at the moment of release. Double check that your peep has had zero movement!!!
 
My guess is possibly a small change in anchor point or the cams are slightly out of synch.

The main thing is I'm glad I'm continuing to practice during hunting season. I'd rather discover a slight change shooting at a target vs the real deal.

I seriously doubt a small change in your Hoyt's cam sync or timing
is the root of the problem. Over the years I've seen quite a few bows that were way out of wack that still shot very well!
 
On my Hoyt Spyder Turbo I've seen this before. When the bottom cam is slightly advanced of the top cam the POI rises. Over the summer my top cam had a .25" gap from the cable stop when my bottom cam was hitting the cable. Once we got the top cam very slightly advanced of the lower cam (credit card gap) it lowered the POI. Now that it's raised slightly one of my assumptions is the lower cam is possibly hitting a tad before the top.

What's the cause the cam sync timing issue?It's been my experience with Hoyt's that once the cables and strings are shot in and the cam sync timing is properly set they are there to stay rock solid!

Try measuring your BH and ATA on both sides to start with.
