Sounds like your center shot is way out, or you have crazy cam lean.

Well I did put one half twist on my right yoke and took one out of my left.

Did you do that based on how it looked or based on how it shot? What rest are you using?

don't adjust cam lean based on looks. You have to do it based off a laser tune chart or based on what the shot tells you through paper.

Would it be worth the three hour drive next Saturday to go to Jimbows? Would they help me sort it out?

I would think it's worth the drive considering you'll be dialed in when you leave.
Make sure they're open and will have time for it though

I would call ahead, this is busy season talk to Dave and Carson and tell them what you need. Usually for tuning a bow they go from start to finish, sometimes they need it longer than you think.

Well made my 3 hour drive down to the city to see Jimbows. After about a half hour Carson had me sorted out and shooting quarter size groups again at 20 yards. My problem was that my cam timing was off due to string stretch. Big relief for me and a big thanks to Jimbows. Less than a week to go until my elk trip.

They really look like they know what they're doing. He just eyeballed my bow and knew what was wrong with it. I was impressed.

They absolutely know what they're doing there.
Glad to hear you're ready to fill some tags with the bow. Good luck
