Default Sight/rest adjustment help

Hi guys, I like trying to figure things out myself but I'm out of my pay grade now...
Got a new string on my bowtech assassin. Paper tuned at home then sighted in. Was shooting fine. Shot about 150 then paper tuned again (left tear). Went to the range today.... Shooting way left and a fair bit high (with a strong crosswind from my left!). My v5 micro sight is adjusted all the way left now and I still hit way left.

From what I gather this can be a draw length issue. Maybe a timing issue?
My draw length seems ok... My anchors are the same as my previous string and I still have an appropriate bend in my bow arm.

If I have bullet holes on paper and my draw seems ok would it be the timing?

Thanks!

When you installed your rest (is is a QAD?) did you install the spacer that comes with it? (forces the rest to move closer to the center shot on Bowtech bows).

I have seen this several times. IF it's a QAD on a Bowtech.

Yup QAD hdx. I'll have to check when I get home, Jim installed it a couple years ago, but I still had the stock sight on.

Spacer is in. I'll take it in and have the guys give it a once over.
Thanks
