Pat B:
You are having an arrow spine problem. The close to center shot bow is more spine tolerant than the selfbow. If you get used to shooting the selfbow with those arrows your siting will change with the other bow.
Make separate arrows for each bow unless they do shoot the same.

Ok but the less center shot bow is the one that i am dead eye with. The center shot should be even better youd think. It doesnt make sense to me that the more center shot bould be the one shooting left.. thats what i find so confusing

Pat B:
Do the arrows shoot well otherwise with both bows. If so, you will have to learn to aim each bow differently. At this late date I'd pic the bow you shoot best and go with it.

jayman448:
I think they shoot fine. Any one else have any idea why i shoot better with a less center cut bow. Than with a center shot? (Of which i shoot farther left... more characteristic of a wrong spline on the less cut bow)  my head is just baffeled.

Urufu_Shinjiro:
The flatbow would induce more archers paradox than the cut out recurve, it's possible the flatbow is actually shooting a little right and you are now used to that and that appears straight to you, then the recurve would shoot a little straighter due to closer to center (less bow for the arrow to curve around) and so while you think you are aiming straight you're actually way left from compensating on the other bow. Archers paradox is a funny thing, spine and bow width can cause an arrow to got straight, left or even right and they will behave very differently on another bow with different dimensions and weight.
