Fletched or bare shafts?  Could be weak or way stiff causing false weak by bouncing off the riser.  Try heavier point weights to see if it goes straighter as you up the weight or keeps going farther right.

For every creature of God is good, and nothing is to be refused if it is received with thanksgiving.

A little saying to help remember about arrow spine (for RH shooter):

'Left is heft, right is light'.  When the arrow heads to the left the arrow spine is too high, when it heads to the right the spine is too low.
