I am RH and shooting a PLX 48@28 and I draw 27 1/2 with a D-97 string. My arrows are 35/55 cut to 28 1/4 with a 50gr insert and 200 point. They fly tail left but hit the target straight, bare shaft and the arrows with 4 4" feathers. Why do they fly tail left but hit where I'm looking and straight?
Slight weak or form. Might try dropping brace height a touch. May need to bring out strike plate just a little. Stick a piece of mole skin on the side plate.
Also could try less point weight.
It might mean that you are very close to having the shafts tuned. Small adjustments can have big consequences when you are close. I agree with olddogrib.
How do you determine they are flying tail left

Damascusdave, if you have the right color target you see you arrow as it flys down range.
Katman, thanks forgot about brace height, I lowered it and the arrows and bare shaft straightened out.
watch this vid it may help

ranger 3, great, also forgot to mention you could adjust silencer position or weight also to fine tune.
So if you are watching the arrow in flight would that be called good follow through...when I follow through I want to be watching where I was aiming the way my coach taught me to do it...and the guys I shoot with, guys who have been shooting for a lot of years, always watch over my shoulder to see what the flight is like...and I always check bareshaft flight at a variety of distances before I declare an arrow ready to hunt with...I hunt moose and elk with a chance at a very close shot when calling...I want great arrow flight at very short (12 feet and over) distances...a friend killed a moose at 9 feet a couple of years ago

My final check is always to bareshaft with broadhead in my basement at about 12 feet

Just looking at the target I can see what the arrow is doing in flight. I was always told to never bare shaft with a broad head.
How far can you back up and shoot?
The best way I have found to bareshaft tune has been to see how far I can go back and still manage to hit a target (usually a 9" pie plate).
By the time I reach my max bareshaft distance of 50 yards I can see how they are flying downrange and if they can hit the target at that distance I consider all tuning to be done.
